it'll be hard to tell at this point because I already have it apart. the needle was clean when I pulled it out. I also used a q-tip to clean inside the tube. it was clean. I blew some air through the fuel inlet. I'm going to check/measure the float distance when the needle is seated to be sure the float is pushing the needle up far enough. I can adjust that if needed.
Other than that, I don't know what else to try. This setup is new to me in that the intruder uses a fuel pump to push gas up to the two carbs. The fuel line from the pump sits low in the frame under the electricals. it pushes fuel up to the rear carb and there's a pass-through sending the fuel on up to the front carb.
it's the original pump. Because I don't know much about them, to me it seems like there's too much pressure and fuel is blowing by the needle. I'm inclined to think that's not the case, but I'm in the dark at this point.
