Carb troubles

When I first start my pantera, it fires right up. Then after it warms up, I drive it for a bit, and when I turn it off, for gas or whatever reason, it won't start. The carb leaks fuel, and the engine *seems* to be flooded. A 15 to 20 minute wait seems to fix the problem, but it's a real pain. I thought it might be the float valve, but I don't know why it wouldn't flood everytime I tried to start it. It's rather warm here in Denver, but my last experience I only drove a few miles with an auxilary fan on and had the same issue. The engine temp never exceeded 160...any ideas before I tear it apart?
