Half of carb leaking fuel?

I've got a strange problem. When I pulled my carb today, one half of my intake manifold is yellow with fuel on the surface. I've also been noticing very poor gas mileage since I've got this truck running. Anyone know what this could be cause by? It's as if the passenger side of the carb are running way to rich And is coating my manifold with fuel.

If it ain't broke, there is still probably room for improvement.

Speed costs money, how fast do you want to go?
