How do you know when you find out it seems like the knob isn't staying with the two screws on the side of it must have to take it in deeper

It is a t-60 torx bit. When you buy it make sure you can get it out of the socket.I've change two and the space is very limited. Put torx bit on and use a wrench to turn the bit.(if it comes out of the socket it the body is shaped like a bolt). Dealer has the gasket kit $5.

There are two types of regulators used. One has a rubber diaphram sealed at perimeter with body and a piston type. Most likely you have the piston type. Remove body containing piston/ spring mech. Examine piston lip seal. Lip will face toward body of reg. and must fit snugly into cylinder. Make sure cylinder is smooth and is well lubed.
If seal/piston fits loose remove seal and wrap some teflon tape in groove and re-install lip seal /test for snug fit. Notice small metal actuator extending from center of reg. , if it is circular (about 1/8 dia) then there should be an oring of the same size mated/fit into the piston. If this oring is missing it will leak as you describe. Lastly, there should be a gasket or oring sealing outer shell to body. If you have diaphragm type look for holes, tear or shrink too small. Parts are at www.toolpartsdirect.com or Lowes in the plumbing department good place for orings and silicone lube. Good luck

So long as gravity is in play with the fuel petcock it will work in any way.
Does fuel go through the line before the carbs?
If so then the floats or the float pin has a problem.
Check by removing the float bowl cover and check the bowl floats for movement.
A in line filter will help stop future problems,If you need to clean the needle jet try a guitar string or a piece of un-wound copper wire to clean it up.
