Keep perservering with me as you sound like you can help me. I really do appreciate your help.

Thanks...
Plastic cam has two holes, right?
Throttle shaft arm has two holes, right?
Use the right holes so the cam is allready moved forward enough so that as soon as the throttle moves, the cam is moving the accell pump. Then check for bottoming out of the pump.

You have checked that the accel pump is squirting, right? the red rubber umbrella may be torn, or the check ball may be stuck, depending on which style of check valve yours has. Also, make sure the hole in the bowl gasket is aligned with the accell pump orifice. If the accell pump squirrts when it is depressed, these are OK, no need to disassemble.
