DB30 gas valve leaking

#1
I'm in the process of restoring an old eb30 doodlebug the float in the carburetor was getting stuck but after taking it apart and cleaning it that's been remedy but now the gas valve on a carburetor is leaking even when switched into the off position. What can I do to fix this?
I'm new to restoring bikes and I'm suck here.

You can buy a whole brand new carburetor on Amazon for $12.95. Save yourself alot of time and screwing with the old one and just replace it.

I agree with the other guys I have spent days soaking and cleaning and still junk

But if you can't wait try loosening the screws on the valve a little and wiggle it around and tighten it back up worked for me once
