Thanks you
 

Thank you for all the help with helping with my ignition system. I totally spaced out what points and how to adjust them been a super long time having to do that. All I uave to do now is find out why I am not getting fuel to the spark plugs. I do know thechoke is turned all the way to the right. I dont know if I did that or my son did that why he played in it.

That is the gav valve and choke. Pull it to choke, turn it to adjust the gas air mixture. Depending on the carb you have start with the knob turned one quarter turn counter clockwise and see if that works....once she fires and the spark rod is adjusted.... Turn the knob to either lean or richen the carb.

Ill try that but when I turn the gas switch on, the gas comes out of the carb pretty quick. Also did notice there is gas on the top part ofmthe carb.

Sounds like you have a sticky float or needle.

You need to remove the carb and remove the bowl by removing the single bolt on the bottom. Then you can check the float and needle and seat to see why it's flooding.
