You did not mention removing the fuel pump or replacing the filter. If you replaced the filter what did you put in? A paper filter?? Many seem to have good luck with cork gaskets for the sediment bowl Vs the neoprene. Don't tighten the thumb screw at the bottom of the filter glass bowl with pliers, it can warp the casting.
A tear in the carburetor gasket between the top and and middle castings will not cause fuel to not flow. The carburetor float bowl is vented to atmosphere.
