carb float bowl & gas

Hey all dealing with a 07 klx250 (35miles) that has sat untill now, Starts cold, runs, after warm (5-10min) stalls out even when riding. (giving gas) I had put seafoam in it, last fall when I got it. Now trying to drain the float bowl, I'm planning on trying to filll it by shooting carb cleaner UP the drain tube then close off to soak. Gas issue NOW, with the valve off (tripple checked) it's drained 1/2 of cup and still dripping steady. ....how much gas can that little thing hold? Or do I now have a 2nd issue? Thanks in advance [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

turn off your petcock take the bottom part of the carb off and see if the main jet corroded into a green color taking off the bottom cover of the float bowl is simple unless the screws are rusted into place
