I replaced the inlet fitting to the Carb, and the filter in the bowl. I have a Marvel Schebler TSX-896 Carb. If its being blocked at the tank, should I take the line off at the bowl, and blow compressed air from there into the tank to see if that is the problem? Like I said, I had gas running out from the drain plug in the bottom of the carb for several minutes in a pretty good stream I'd say 2 minutes maybe to fill half of an empty coffee can. It didn't stop until I put the plug back in. There is no shut off soleniod, just a small screw inserted where that should be. I've read posts about stuck floats, pluged vents, etc.
Maybe this is relavant - when I cleaned and installed a new filter in the sediment bowl, gas just dripped in slowly. I assumed that since everything was connected, then the air trapped held up the flow at that time. the bowl is filled now, and this happened before I tested the flow at the carb.
I have tried taking the gas cap off to see if the plugged vent was the issue as well.
The ironic part is she hasn't ran since I took the pics and posted them last week. That'll teach me to say nice things about my old girl.

I've already drilled the center of the bolt out with about 7/64" drill bit the entire length of the bolt. Only one end of the bolt is visible. I tried to use an easy out but it wasn't budging and I didn't want t
