Why does my carburettor keep bogging down?

The job of a carburettor is to atomize liquid fuel by injecting it into a flowing stream of air. The mixture of this air and fuel must be rather precise in order to combust within the cylinder. If there is much air, or too much fuel being delivered you will experience power loss and/or bogging down.

What should I do if my engine won’t Rev?

yep..I’d try changing the fuel/water seperator filter first. And since your level was so low, it might have sucked water and debris off the bottom of the tank. Agree with Jerry that you should remove the fuel filter/water separator first. Check it and see what’s in it.
