If it was ok but gone like this then blocked idle jet, blocked air filter. Do you have an inline fuel filter?

I pulled the carb apart and cleaned all the jets, and the air filter. guess ill pull the boot off and inspect that next.

It would be nice if you had a simple screen within your tank, and an external fuel filter (like the wonderful VISU-FILTER for $3.99) in the fuel line.
Anyway, the "damage" is done at this point, if there is a clog in your pilot circuit.
I would remove the pilot jet (usually #40) and blow WD-40 into the tube. I would be sure your pilot jet adjustment screw is 3 turns out, then button things up and try again.

cracks on the boot that dont go through. hmmm. Get it running and idling best you can, spray wd40 all over the boot. if it gets drawn in the idle speed will change. Bad cracks you'll see it seep in.
