Maybe someone can suggest something like tsp to reduce the surface tension of the bubbles (or not- I'm no chemist): I do have a lot of experience with various coatings on different surfaces. Have you gotten your carb. back from your mechanic yet?
Paint and fogger to help hydrogen release or reduce foam crawling up... I'm not sure about that, but will be good if it works which can benefit everybody.

About my carburetor, hmmm... still in mechanic shop. The o-ring around injector nozzle spoilt causing more fuel dump into engine. Too much fuel causes the engine to stop. My friend who helped me to insert the injector didn't realise that he used force to insert the injector. This cause the o-ring torn and cause fuel over bleeding.

I was frustrated because I found out about the problem after made a new base for carburetor. $$$$ The engine can't even start and battery almost dry. I had to use jump start cable at the end. After replacing with newer o-ring (not the correct spec) and change new set of spark plug, engine able to start but still too much fuel enters into injector. Hopefully my mechanic able to replace the correct o-ring in these two days time.
