More times than not a carb rebuild will cure the problem .Try as one might there's nothing you can do to prevent nor salvage a carb once the diaphragm and check valves stiffen up except rebuild it with new parts

A lot and lot of people with good intentions  have tried just cleaning them up but few have been satisfied with the results .

A rebuild kit is relatively inexpensive,often less than 10 dollars .I often order them 4-6 at a time .
