You should see a jet of gas being squirted directly into the throat of the carburetor as the throttle linkage is opened This is the jet from the accelerator pump. If there is no gas coming you have something obstructing the fuel supply. Could be a stuck needle valve obstruction in the fuel line, plugged filter, or maybe just a pile of junk in the float bowl | | |
