Sounds like the float is stuck and or the jets. First off, make sure the float and needle move freely.

try spraying a LITTLE fuel or starting fluid in air cleaner while starting that will answer your question if carb is problem.If it starts for a second then you missed something in carb, If it doesn't start look at valve clearance again and make it right.Is this an R or ER if er hows starter clutch mine was bad and it didnt give me any indication that it was bad was slipping just enough not to start even sounded normal was just worn past spec they can give different symptoms
