All the brass plugs need to be removed and drill out the passages with the correct bits. Also check for good spark. Ron MN

A bad condensor will some times fool you into thinking it is fuel related. A lot of them are junk so might want to give one a try.

Choke closing all the way?

new condenser and points, spark indicator looks good, points had welded that's why I replaced them. need to look at the choke closer. what are the brass plugs?

Brass plugs/screws in and on the outside of the carb. When you back them out will look like a set screw get a small drill bit and clean those passages out. Use your fingers to turn the bits. Not a drill
