Hi Patrick. My knowledge of carbs is somewhat limited but I'll try to help.
Is the throttle and choke plates opening and closing as they should? Is the
metering needle in correctly and is it the right one? Is the carb adjusted
correctly? I don't know if this helps much if at all but it's usually the one
thing that a person overlooks. Good luck and let me know how it goes.

out of the intake hole (throttle body I think it is called) and plenty of
it. I pulled the plug on the bottom of the carb and only about a tablespoon
came out not the expected half cup that should of been there. If you look
in the throttle body part of the car there is a lot of fuel, enough that it
is running out and cover the outside of the carb. >>
