Re: Carb issue

"hisses" menaing that it is drawing air back and forth, not even coming close to pull any gas up into the throat.
Carb issue

I have a newer snow blower.  It has a primer.  When I push the primer, I normally hear gas being drawn and injected into the throat of the carb.  I do not.  It simply "hisses".  Any ideas?  I drained my gas tank but failed to drain the bowl from last year, if that helps.  Newb, I know!  Thanks Monte

I had a backwards issue.  I am pressing the primer bulb and I am not getting ANY fuel to inject into the carb throat.  It sounds like air hissing back and forth.  I popped the carb off, float is loose, the needle looks good, w/o taking it out.  Nothing seems to be clogged yet the hissing comes from this port that I believe you all are talking about is where the excess gasoline escapes when over primed,  THis does not seem normal to me.  Is there a check of some kind that may be tarnished over or something?  Please let me know. Thanks.
