Have you tried the fuel/air mixture screw, and does it squirt gas when you pump it

When it does fire is it running rich ? you could have too little fuel coming out the carb,or too much air(vacuum leak) .

The Ford chokes require 9 volts from the alternator stator terminal.

The work slow .

They don't fire up like a soldering iron.

Have you indexed the choke at all ?
