Sound like your carb needs cleaning out. A compressor is the best tool for the job. You can also leave it in paraffin (kerosene) overnight (not the rubber seals though)

I sprayed starting fluid and it fired and ran for a moment until the
spray went away. If it was electrical it would not have run. Since
it ran on the starter fluid, it must be the carb,,, right? I am
assuming that maybe a jet is plugged. Am I heading down he right
path?
Thanks
