    When i took.it apart to see what the problem was I cleaned all those out. But the float is dropping to low then the needle slides down to far and pins.between thw float flange and the needle seat then thw float will not rise like it should.

    I tried to bend up the forward edge of flange I did not see a tang on the back of the flange like you show on your photo. Could that be why the float is dropping to low allowing the needle to drop to low and wedge against the flange.
