    Assuming your compression is up to snuff, I’d start with the fuel system again.
    Are you sure you’re able to pump the carb full of gas with the tank primer?
    If the bowl is full of gas it should run longer than a few seconds if the
    rest of the carb is okay.

    Prepare to be boarded!
