If I had any brains about boat engines I wouldn't be on these posts - lol. But if your carb is anything like a Holly - i would check to see if the needle valve on the float is stuck. also is there a float adjustment?

Can you get any gas into the lower carb? What if you disconnect the hose to the top one and plug it (philips screw driver and a hose clamp will do it) then pump the bulb?
