I have to prime the engine for like 45 seconds just to get fuel to the carb.

What could be causing this ?

Are you plugging the exhaust with your finger while turning the engine over? Should only take a few seconds. If you are and it's still taking that long, then you definitely have a leak somewhere. Fuel tank, fuel lines, manifold gasket or manifold coupler are places to look.
 
After cleaning the fuel lines and carb it's working now. Thanks.
