Can you be a bit more specific,

which carb are you running (Solex, Zenith, Webber)?

What sort of problem?

There is petrol getting to the carb?

Try manualy pumping the fuel through (little lever on the side of the fuel pump) take the big pipe off the top of the carb and get assistant to press accelarator pedal, you should get a spray of petrol down the middle of the carb if there is petrol present.
