wiring complete/ not firing

A couple more carb thoughts
After the top is off, if you can simply reach in and lift the float(s) out of bowl, the problem is found, because the wire(s) wasnt secured into seat groove.
Be careful not to drop or lose needle, as it dangles from float, hanging on a small clip.
When replacing top make sure the gasket is on correctly. Dont overtighten and strip screws. Watch that the small piece of plastic on the choke lever/rod is properly in place and doesnt get jambed between top and body (sometimes the plastic piece is missing).
