Farmall B that won't start

I just bought an old 1940 farmall B and it ran once
before I got it. Now it doesn't appear to be getting
gas because the spark plugs aren't wet. It does have a spark. After I crank it over, gas
pours out of the air intake - this doesn't seem right.
What would cause this? I have checked for vacuum leaks
and it has ran about 3 weeks ago so the cylinders
shouldn't be dry.
My thought right now is that maybe it is getting gas
but the gas is too old to start it up. I'm going drain
it and start with fresh gas

Any Suggestions?
