Most 4 stroke outboard carbs that I’ve worked can be difficult to get clean. I had a Honda 25 once, that I ended up replacing one of the carbs to finally get it to run. I like to use Power Tune spray ran thru all the passages, then let soak. Follow that with a rinse of B12 Chemtool carb cleaner. The last step is to blow it out with compressed air. You would think that a brand new carb would eliminate the other one being dirty or plugged though…
I’ve rebuilt some of these in the past, only to have the owner store them with ethanol gas in the caburetor…. then come back and complain why they won’t run properly.
