It very well could be, or a problem with the float. Remove the bowl off the carburetor, remove float, needle valve, and seat. Clean all parts good with carburetor cleaner. Float the float in some fuel to make sure it floats (when should not that any fuel inside of it). Put needle valve, seat, and float back on and open fuel valve a small amount, lift float up to see if it will shut fuel off, if it does reinstall bowl. If not you may have to replace the needle and seat.
