carb rebuild fix this?

[zero9912]

ok so heres my problem. im not getting fuel to my engine. i checked the fuel line and gas is coming through it. i took my carb off and cleaned it but gas is not flowing out of the carb. it will start with starting fluid but quickly die. would a carb rebuild fix this? please help me. also, how do i know which model carb i have so i can order a rebuild kit for it?

first check your reeds make sure there not cracked or broke....

ok thanks. how do i go about doing that?

the reeds are between the intake boot and cylinder. take the 4 screws off but watch the gasket, try not to rip it or mess it up.

is the intake boot the piece on the left side of the carb where it connects?

why check reeds??? he just said that the carb is gettng gas but not flowing out of it. get a rebuild kit and rebuild it. I would thinkt your floats are getting stuck. You just need to get a rebuild kit for a 26mm stock blaster carb. Maybe even cleaning it really well would fix it.

sounds like a clogged float valve. try shooting carb spray through it. also make sure that the floats are free.
it could also be a clogged jet or maybe the idle screw or pilot screw is severely maladjusted.

thank you very much. it is a clogged float valve. are you aware whether a new one would come in a rebuild kit or should i order one seperately? also, i tried spraying carb fluid through it, but it didnt unclog.
