The float bowl is supposed to be full of fuel. However, if what you are saying is that the fuel doesn't stop flowing into the float bowl and causes the engine to flood, then the problem lies in the needle valve that is controlled by the float. When the float drops because the engine is "pulling" fuel, the valve will open to allow more fuel into the bowl. As the bowl fills up, the float will rise and close the valve to cut off the fuel supply. The other interpretation I can make of your question is that the float itself is full of fuel. If that's the case, the float is damaged and must be replaced.
