It might be that the secondary needle and seat assembly is damaged or
misaligned and that prevents it from shutting off completely. Is the float
hanger free of friction?
One other thing that can happen to carbs with brass floats (I don't recall if
the 4100 is in that category, but it's happened to me with Webers) is that the
float develops a leak and then fills with fuel so it can't operate the shutoff
needle.
