Since you mentioned carb when you look into the carb throat, engine not running of course, choke blade open, can you see any fuel squirt into the throat of the carb each time you depress the accelerator pedal to the floor? If you don't see the squirt of fuel that could mean fuel is not getting to the carb either because of a plugged fuel filter , defective fuel pump, and don't laugh because it could be out of gas!
