Yes – access to those carbs is not service-friendly. Getting that motor ready for winter the first time, I was going to use some fogging spray since being a 4-stroke, there was no oil in the gas to leave any coating in the cylinders. It was impossible to spray it into the carbs with that intake shroud vertically over them all, having the intake air opening at the bottom, hanging almost to the floor of the power-head compartment, and no obvious, easy way to remove it. I maybe could have fogged if I had a u-shaped tube on the fogging spray.
If I can’t find a simple solution, and/or it looks like a carb problem, I’m going to tell him to take it in somewhere because I don’t want to be “learning” on his motor. I’ll be looking at it on Thursday and let you all know what I find.
