you need to find if its spark or fuel. put a spark tester. or leave a strap sitting on a plug contact so you can see it sparking and see if the spark stops before the engine does or does it follow it till off. the bowl should have more than 15 seconds in it i would think. Havent tried on the A but most things like to run for about a minute before drying out the bowl. If your carb has a drain like a tilly. you can check flow to bowl by pulling the drain with fuel on.
