Default 4180 Carburetor Probs

Hey guys, I have a 87 F150 with a 351 and it's got the 4180 stock Holley and the problem I have is something below the front fuel bowl and front metering block is leaking and also it has a big hesitation when it's put toward the floor or tapped down quickly, either stalls or dies because it floods. Any ideas why?
