have cleaned and rebuilt this carb i can get it to run off ether and hit when i put hand over end of the carb. any suggestions on what else i could do?

Float level too low and not allowing fuel in.
Plugged /dirty filter. One inside the tank, one at the top of the glasss jar and the last is in the brass elbow at the carb.
Pull the bolt at the bottom of the carb, How much in 30 seconds?

not very much at all. just dripping not a steady stream

You found your problem.
No fuel flow.
Pull the line out of the carb and check again.
Most people start at the top, I start at the bottom.
Do you have one of those after market plastic in line fuel filters or other?
I have seen those stop flow.

its a solid lgas line no aftermarket filter. i have good flow from tank and now have good flow coming from bottom of carb. new brass fitting at carb still will not run. i put a new float in and set it to 1/4”

Uh.. . . .
Brass fitting with a barb on it screwed into the bottom of the carb.
Clear hose, 24" over barb, open end held up to the sky.
Open fuel valve.
Fuel Line in hose will match fuel level inside carb.
Should be just below gasket.
