OK thanks for posting pics. So you have a Zenith carb. Also looks like crud in the glass sediment bowl. I use Wix filter #33039. Do easy stuff first. No sense tearing into stuff. Remove the air filter. If the carb is running rich the carb screen (filter) may be "water" logged with gasoline. As mentioned run you finger around all the fittings and the carb itself. Does the gas smell fresh or like old varnish?
