2.2 getting too much fuel

Now the engine won't start because its getting way to much petrol (gaseline or whatever you call it in english).
The engine just overflows with it so much that its even dripping into the carter (oil).

Anyone have any idea in what this could be ?

I haven't changed anything according to wires or board computers

Thnx

If it has sit up for a while the first thing I would suspect is the needle & seat hung open inside the carburator or a piece of trash not allowing it to close.
