81 20r wierd weber problems

So I was up the trails and on the last trail it started feeling like the carb was loading up or not getting fuel and I'd have too floor it to clear it out. So drove it 30 miles home fine and its gotten to where it will run fine cold with manual choke on, then warms up and dies with choke on or off.let it sit to cold again n does it all over. Once warm it starts for a sec then dies if I pump the pedal a ton it will run for a bit longer then die again???? Trying to get trail ready for Sat run. Thanks!!!

Maybe it is dirty, maybe it's the floats, maybe a clogged fuel filter too, with what you are describing it seems to run out of fuel.

So I took the carb off n apart and stuck it in my carb cleaner at work and adjusted the floats by raising em s little bit and it at least starts and idles but if I giv it any gas what so ever it dies ?

And I can see fuel spraying when I throttle up. Idk if I'm running to rich or too lean or what but it's weird this would randomly start happening without and progression
