Ariel WNG Carb keeps flooding with cap on

Hi All
I wonder if anyone can help.

I have nearly got the Ariel done and am having a problem where the float chamber always floods when you open the fuel tap.
It does not flood when the cap is off the float chamber.

I have tried different bowls, caps, needles and floats but still the same. I wonder are there different lengths of needles or caps, maybe and I just happen to have the wrong ones. I'm guessing the tickler or "needle guide" in the cap are catching and not allowing the needle to seat properly but I cant understand why it keeps doing it with all the alternative parts I have.

I just wondered before I start modifying things if someone has heard of this issue before and can offer some advice.
Thanks in advance!

I had a similar problem with my WNG until I fitted the correct 15 degree float chamber.
