If you know the carb is getting fuel, pull the top of the carb off and check the float needle/seat. There also may be a screen inline before the needle/seat, thats clogged. See if the fuel inlet on the carb can unscrew.
I only know about 22r carbs(PU truck), and I've never worked on the insides of a LC carb. They maybe similar.

I'm not exactly sure to either question! It's getting good fuel at the carb. But the crb will not accept it! Check for clogs, etc. Will need to pull the top off the carb and check it out. I'll check the fuel and the pump too! Thank you for responding. I'm new to this and I know it will take time to learn this set up!
If the upper was gummed up, you can bet the middle and lower are dirty also.
I'd go to Rockauto.com and see if they have a rebuild kit for it.
You'll feel better if you just do it right the first time.
