One possibibility.

Drain the float bowls after shutting off the gas and remove the screws.
Then apply a gas proof sealer to the screw threads.

I would use the 3M 599 Ultra Grey sealer or Permatex equivalent.
It is called "something" grey also. It is gas proof and removable if needed.

That way you would not have to remove the carbs.
Just putting some sealer on the tip of the screw might do it too.
