George,
The carbs indeed have raw fuel in the bowls, but they should not be giving you strong fumes. You're going to need to crawl over, under & around sniffing for the fume source like Mike says. Sniff around your engine/carbs, fuel tank vent hose, supply line fittings, pump fittings, etc. You don't have float levels set too high, dripping raw fuel into the blower, do you? You should not have fuel fumes that strong, IMO, and I chased them for weeks, too. Mine ended up being more tied to my running mixture, leaving excess raw fuel in the intake. Have your carbs been tuned specific to your engine?
