Ok, low on sleep....not thinking well....I just took my carb apart, swapped jets, and now my front squirters aren't working.....what did I miss? Rear squirters work just fine. Took it back apart, gasket is not blocking the hole (that I can tell), yes the lever is under the base plate linkage, the umbrella in the accel pump looks ok, float bowl fills with fuel......am I missing something???

Can you blow through the pump nozzle (squirter)? Can you blow through the main body? See where I am going with this? I am interested to see what the problem is. Never seen that happen before. From your description I'd guess the problem would be faulty parts or debris.

Either the needle out or the needle stuck.If you did not leave out the needle and it is not stuck,blow through it with your air hose,if no air hose spray carb. cleaner through it and make sure it is not stopped up.

Ok, well I took a nap, drank some coffee, took the whole thing back apart and blew out all the passages with compressed air...I reassembled the carb and it's working fine now. I have no idea what happened, but it's working now.   Thanks everyone

You had the gasket on backwards.
One day I will have something cool here.
