You will get a bunch of answers. My standard answer to questions such as yours is to disassemble the carb, and put the whole thing into true carb cleaner and let it set over night. Blow it out with compressed air and although you can't do this with all passages, when you blow air in it should come out somewhere. I never do anything to the jets, they might break anyway. Put in a new kit, preferably IH. Don't choke the tractor for more than a couple of revs when starting. If it does not start, gas will come out of the hole at the bottom for every IH gas engine. Be sure the float is at the correct height and that the needle does not catch in the seat. I think the starting numbers are 3 turns out for the main jet and 1.5 of so for the idle. Unless you have an electrical problem it will start. If you flood it, you have to wait a while. I think it is impossible to get too much gas unless you have to crank it a long time to get it to start--that happens very easily. In that case, yes it gets in the cylinders.
