New throttle cable installed, now overflow pours out gas

[Prime113]

Let me say this first: I do not have TORS installed on the bike (pretty sure 99% of banshees dont nowadays anyway) Originally thought when I installed my new throttle cable that it would just need to be adjusted a little with the caps on top of the carb, and the piece that screws into the top, but messin around with that and the throttle cable by the throttle didnt manage to stop the bike from pouring out gas. Now I checked online and some links redirected me to here where I saw people saying that maybe the float is stuck or the needle needs to be cleaned and all that, so I ordered a clymers manual so that I could read it and make sure im doing everything correctly when I tear into carbs whenever it arrives. If anybody has any suggestions on what to do for this I'd appreciate it. Ive tapped on the bowls to see if that would help, but it didnt. I havent messed around with any of the screws on the carbs yet either. It also seems like it was only the right carbs overflow that was leaking, so I might have just messed up with putting the slide in backwards but I am almost 100% sure that I put it in correctly.
