Default HELP! Carb CLogged?

Hey everyone, so i got a AC 08 366 that wont start. has spark, clean air filter, gas, new oil and filter, new spark plug, and new battery. i put a lil gas on the plug yesterday and a shot of gas in the hole, than hit the ignition and it fired up for bout 2-3 seconds. this mean the engine isnt gettin gas and the carbs is clogged? thanks!

fuel delivery issue....yes. do you have fuel past the fuel filter and through the petcock valve? does the float bowl have fuel (checked through the bowl drain)? if you have fuel up to the bowl, then yes, you're up to the float/needle valve and jets. have fun!

yeah when i put the tank on reserve, gas pours out the hose. I bet one of the needles is clogged, or the float is stuck most likely. just wanted to make sure!!!! thanks!
