Not getting fuel in cylinder

[larry.heissenbuttle]

!996 50 hp Evinrude. I am not getting fuel in the bottom cylinder. I rebuilt the carbs, have new plugs, new fuel filter and fuel pump. I checked and have spark. It cranks and will run at idle for as long as I let it. While it is running I can pull the bottom wire and it doesnt change. If I pull the top wire it shuts down. The top plug is wet and the bottom plug is dry. I checked the compression and have 110 in both cylinders. If I spray seafoam in the bottom carb, The engine revs until it is burned off. Not sure what to look for next.
Thanks in advance,
Larry

Sounds like the high speed jet ( orifice plug ) is plugged.-----It is a wee item ( 5/8" long ) that is screwed horizontally into the carburetor bowl.---Often overlooked.

I looked at a diagram and it looks like it is behind the plug in the carburetor bowl. Is that the one? If so I will check it tomorrow.

Correct----It is often overlooked by the novice working on the first carburetor.
