    0 for 3 is a pretty poor average with carburetors. It’s kind of hard to guess what you are repeatedly doing wrong. But you mention over priming. Could that mean you are mashing on the primer bulb? Squeeze it hard enough and it will force the float needle off the seat.

    BTW, too much gas is just about as bad and not enough gas when it comes to the motor starting/running or not.
