MG MGA - weber problems

I installed and tuned in a Weber DGEC on my 1500 MGA. Ran fine for a while then began to have problems with float valve overfilling bowl and drowning engine..Had me buffaloed for awhile. Took it apart three times to remedy problem. Finally determined that it was the most basic of problem. Debris in fuel supply causing Grose type valve not to fully close. Installed inline filter and resolved issue..This Weber very sensitive to dirt...SU's tolerated it. Gary
