Does it stay running once you spray the gas?

carb rebuild time? possibly grey fuel lines? combo of both?....
OK, I suspect no fuel coming to the carbs.
Do you have the gray tempo fuels lines?
A clogged fuel selector may be the problem or a carb problem, (dirty filter inside???)

first thing i would do would be to change those fuel lines for the black ones RIGHT AWAY... take your carbs off and clean them very very well and then clean your fuel filter and go from there ... the grey lines over time the gas eats away from the insides of the lines and creates green gunky stuff and you really dont want that inside your motor or carbs .. it WILL cause the motor to run bad or not at all ....
I agree 100% with Matty.
Read up on changing out the fuel lines...do a search...many threads on it. Go to the "How to " Section on the home page.

check this site out for fuel lines www.fuel-line.net they have colored transparent lines for about $0.50 a foot. I would also change those small white oil lines on your oil pump they become brittle and crack. This site has that as well. I believe your fuel lines are 1/4 inch id and the oil lines are 1/8 inch id. They have clear,blue,red,orange,yellow,and green and they are transparent so you can see the fluid move through them. I bought 100 ft of fiel line and 25 ft of oil line, worked out great. You wont need near that amount maybe buy the 25 ft of fuel line for $11.99 and the 7 ft of oil line $4.99 and you will have alot of extra of each. I had a few machines to do
Just a word of caution on clear fuel lines. The clear fuel lines are not USCG rated, in fact its not rated at all, so if you live in an area, usually near the ocean where you could be subject to Coast Guard inspection it's probably not a good idea to use the clear fuel line.
The 1/4" automotive fuel line does not have a CG rating either but it does have an SAE rating and the Coast Guard will usually let it slide.
I don't want to start a debate here, just telling the facts.

Lou is right on the fuel lines. I shouldve stated that. I am so used to these inland lakes around here where the sheriff runs your registration and id and doesnt check anything else. I know the lines hold up but if your cautious use marine grade lines from overtons or west marine.

using clear lines for the cooling system is neat as well, you can see the water moving.
