If the sediment bowl is dry, then there's obviously nothing wrong with the carburetor. You're not even getting fuel to the carb!

You've got a fuel flow problem at the tank. Either its vapor-locking because the gas cap's vents are plugged, or you've got a serious crud problem inside the tank.

"Blowing the tank out" with air, all you're doing is stirring up the crud. You might get a little bit coming out the neck, but most of the crud just bounces around inside the tank and goes right back to the bottom. Especially the big pieces.

You may need to take the gas tank to a radiator shop to have it cleaned.
