Where is the main jet knob on the new carb set? Not being a Ford guy I looked it up. Looks like you should turn it closed lightly seating it and then open it 2 turns. You also must not know much about how a carburetor works. The fuel fitting that is dripping is doing that because the fuel in the tank is higher than the carb. So the gas is acting under gravity and atmospheric pressure to flow or slightly pressurize the fuel line to the carb. Inside the carb is a small chamber that holds the gas it will mix with the air for the engine to run on. The gas in that chamber usually called the float bowl is held at a certain level by a float that activate a needle valve. The fitting you see leaking is feeding that valve, often referred to as the needle and seat. The gas in the float bowl kept at the proper level feeds and opening for the main jet. The knob adjust how much gas can flow out of the float bowl into the main jet to mix with the air going into the intake manifold of the engine. The passage the air flows through and the float bowl are separated areas in the carb. The fuel line leaking and it sucking air at that location is not possible.
