when you press the gas and look in car gas should squirt out to little things or one you should be able to see it looking down carb if not it's time for a carb overhaul. also check flow and pressure in pump.shold be about 3-4 psi for a carb pint of fuel in 30 seconds as well.

If I took the carburator off and cleaned it do you think it would fix my problem

no, it probably needs an overhaul due to alcohol in todays fuels.
