basically you need to clean the carb, check the float level, and check to be sure there's no junk in the needle/seat

To measure float height, take the carb off, remove the bowl and gasket from the carb, turn the carb upside down, measure from the bowl mating surface to the highest part of the float. It should be 0.85 inch (a little more than 3/4 of an inch). If you don't get this measurement, just bend it up or down until you get there. Hope this helps.
