Sounds like the pilot jet is still plugged shut. remove the pilot jet, and look thru it like looking down a straw. You should be able to see light coming thru the center hole. If you cant it get the center hole to open up, just buy a new one...they are about 5 bucks.

Yup, pull the carb and drop the bowl and blow it out real good (through the jets).... with a compressor!
