I have a yamaha golf cart don't know what type but I know its from the mid 90's.Well the problem I'm having is the engine won't turn over.I changed the fuel pump and fuel filter,the fuel pumps fine out of the pump.cleaned the carb,checked the plug its good. the fuel lines look good.But if I cover the carb with my had and hold it for a 3 to 5 seconds it fires up for maybe 7 to 10 seconds and then it dies out.Is it a air fuel mixture problem?

did you unscrew the jet at the bottom and the jet at the top and blow them out?

sounds to me it's a plugged jet

Could it possibly be a cracked carb spacer? They can be cracked and you won't know till you take them off. I learned that from experience. Just a guess, I may not even be close.
