Default Tillotson MT series question

I got everything together today, and wanted to check for any leaks between the tank and the carb, (tank, Tillotson fuel bowl, line, Tillotson MT series carb). The carb was supposed to be tested good. Anyway, I put a bit of gas in the tank, opened the bowl valve, let the fuel fill the float chamber, and a minute later fuel ran out of the barrel(venturi) and onto the garage floor in a fast drip. Somebody said that this is normal. Bad needle valve in the float chamber? That cant be right.
