check the 't' connector for the overflow. if the right side's overflow was clogged, you'll get an air bubble in that side, and it won't get fuel.

maybe hte float needle is damaged on that side and not sliding ?

is the float working ?

ill check the 't', as far as the float needle its still in good condition doesnt look worn.

Could it be that the float bowl outlet is clogged (i.e. not letting fuel into your hose)? Was there any gunk in the float bowl?
