Default 85 318 2bbl carb issue Help!!! stuck without ny ram!

Mines shot and after afriend helped me he lost a part and its sending fuel out of the top of the carb. I was working and he was trying to help. Heres what happened, i was driving to school and the fuel line borke. Vibrated at the bend right at the outlet of the filter. I finally ened up coming out of the fuel filter with hose into a inline filter and to the hardline to the carb. Well the ruck stated floding at idle, so muchfuel passing through it was rediculous. It ran fine coming down the road but if you let off at all it start bogging? What was my issue that you could think off? Now i need another carb, is there a good 2 bbl that comes off another vehicle or what are my best options for what i can get on a low budget, i can get nearly anything out of the junkyard. Thanks!!!!

It could be a needle and seat/float issue,a rebuild kit and being careful should fix it.
Change the oil and filter now!
