i would expect around 300-400 canadian for it
running good
if it is a tillosten carb the diaprams may need to be replaced
and if the cap isn't ventilating correctly i don't think it get gas
try with cap off
lines arn't clogged with dirt or old gas

Have you tried a compression test? Here is an easy fix to try before doing a top end teardown.
If the pressure bleeds off it is usualy because the top ring is stuck. You can try putting some penetrating oil in the cylinder and waiting about an hour, then recheck the compression. This is best done with the piston at top dead center.
