what you do is take the carb apart fully and leave all rubber peices aside, put in a tall pot of lemon juice and boil for 30 minutes, Warning: it will smell terrible. now take it out and flush it with something like wd-40/water so it dosent turn dull, then set it down on some paper towel and dry it off, look and make sure you can see through the main jet and such, and make sure everythings good, i let mine sit overnight just to make sure it was dried out, hook it back up and hook up your gas line, make sure gas is flowing and everything is good, and then pull and see what you get. i recommend going to a mower shop and asking for a carb rebuild kit, there like 3 bucks and you get carb gaskets and a needle and such, they really help thesse carbs. ive been through thesse carbs 100 times, i cant remember the setup well, but ive dealt with them, also another peice of advice, if it still wont start hold the motor wide open and pull extrmeley hard 1-3 times, if it runs but wont run without any throttle, it could be a head gasket
