It runs, so you know you have spark. Remove the carb., and clean it. Depending on the brand of carb., you may need help. Find a repair manual that has good instructions (Clymer, Haynes...) and go to work. You may want experienced help for this. Some carbs are tough for the oldtimers. Don't fool with adjustments until after the rebuild.
Good luck.
