The third item to check will be where the gas line goes into the carb, remove the line from the carb, and then remove the fitting from the carb., there should be a very fine mesh screen attached to the fitting, and this screen could be plugged. The screen can be cleaned with an aerosol carb cleaner. If none of these items are the culprit then it is time to rebuild the carb.
