One (or maybe more) of your float bowls is flooding/overflowing.
Try tapping it (gently!) with a ring spanner to hopefully dislodge whatever dirt or grime that may be causing the float-bowl needle to not sit flush
and therefore overflow...

Are facets interuptor pumps ie shut down when it meets resistance (float needle closing)
or are they designed to have a return.
