Why do you think it's possible to float in the Great Salt Lake and sink in Horsetooth Reservoir?

The specific gravity of the water in the Great Salt Lake is much higher than that of the Horsetooth Reservoir. You displace the same volume in both lakes, but you displace more weight of water in the Great Salt Lake, so by Archimedes Principe you get more lift.

What would be the cause of the carburetor filling up with fuel and coming out of all overflows?
The floats sticking in the open position in the fuel reservoir. Possible, but this linkage almost never distorts. Another possibility is a pinhole in the float, especially if the float is hollow soldered metal. Most likely is a worn out needle valve and/or seat. These are included in most carb rebuild kits. After replacing, check the float height against the specs, usually also included with kit.
