I have seen it happen first hand while blowing carb out using compressed air where the needle bushing had blown out. Look in the throat of the carb where you will see the slide. Push the slide up and where the needle goes through the floor of the carb regulating the fuel from the main jet you should see slightly sticking up either a brass or aluminum bushing. If you don't see it start looking for it.
Ok I will check on that tomorrow. I am getting a compression tester and new fuel lines tomorrow just for the heck of it because mine now are all Dryrot. Thank you for the help
