Well what type of Carb? My guess is that your fuel pump is bad. They usually have a visible leak when they start to go but I have seen them go bad and pump fuel into the crank case without leaking externally. I had a Holley on a car one time and it was dumping too much fuel so I rejetted it and the car ran better.

Rings are really the only place it can get in if you dont have a mech. fuel pump. I would suspect an overly rich carb, excessive blow-by, or a bad ignition.
