I'm trying to get the motor to fire up and after carb rebuild
I'm not getting fuel o pulled the carb and the float bowl is bone dry .

I am getting fuel to the diaphragms. I pulled the hose from the diaphragm and it had fuel coming out

Is it the needle valve clogged or is some sort of passage clogged that I might have missed maybe

I'm not sure if I have the little red rubber seal for the needle valve installed correctly I stuffed it In there as far as I could go with it but I'm wandering if its maybe blocking g the fuel flow to the bowl

Pull the bowl off, then attach a short piece of fuel line to the carb and blow into it. Could be the needle is stuck closed or that seal, you'll find it pretty quick.
