A bit of tinkering this afternoon. I still have some stuck pivot points to free up. I'm afraid I may have to put heat to them. I'm hoping not for the paints sake.

 

I've come to the realization that ever k series carb I have is in need of major overhauling. 

I tried mis matching enough carb parts to get it running but nope no run. Just alot of wasted gas and effort.

 

You try the Hillman washers yet?

That I'm not sure of that yet. All need the top  bore fixed. One also needs a float and all need bowl and mounting  gaskets.

No extra floats here but I'll  take care of the top and gaskets.

Unfortunately none of them are the #30 carb with the correct choke lever

I finally had a moment to work on this little guy again.

The throttle shaft had alot of play in it so I spun out a bushing for it.

 

I have gas and fire with a jumper.

It will start with a squirt of starter fluid then die.

When trying to start with just the carb all it does it buck to starter.

I was thinking a stuck valve 🤔, but it starts with a shot. 

I know I'm over looking something, but what

Could be the ignition timing is off or you have a condenser that has gone bad, time for an ignition tune-up.

I never gave much thought to the condenser. It has good fire

Here is some information I saved from a post by @Save Old Iron.

If an engine idles well, but runs erratically when revved up, like it hits and misses, pops and backfires, then chances are, it needs a new condenser/capacitor. And always install a condenser/capacitor with the wire facing downward so rain water and/or when washing off engine, water will not enter inside condenser/capacitor, ruining it. With water inside the condenser, this will also allow it to idle well, but cause it to run erratically when revved up.

No. Between work and the weather I haven't been back to it yet.
