It might have clogged due to old gas.You might want to look at the filter and see if theres any debris there.That'll give you a idea of where to start.

I am having these same problems with my carb that I just rebuilt. I am wondering if you got it resolved, every word that you typed fits my present situation. Please help, tell me how to get this resolved.



Thank You,

well i have one of those glass filters, the ones you can see through, and there is no trash, clean as a whistle. but it takes a minute or two for the fuel to completely fill up inside the filter tube. poor pressure, or does it always take a while to fill?
