Ain't no shortcuts for a carb (at least the little ones). Pull it down. They are pretty simple critters.
.....what i did was to use up all the fuel in the tank and then put in a different mix with less oil and better gas, and there is quite a noticable difference, it runs as good as it did when i first got it, so there must have been way to much oil in the last batch of fuel.....\_O_/ ( throws arms in air )
.....that's what i thought when i pulled one out of the little poulan....but when i looked at a diagram online, there were way more tiny parts in there than i ever imagined could be....i am just getting used to these opposable thumb things....so i'll take any shortcut i can get....if i can get a kit for under 10 bucks tho,then that's what i will prob e do.....but be prepared for more questions......maybe a lot more, heh heh.Ain't no shortcuts for a carb (at least the little ones).

Yes disassembled carb take out a screw wherever there is one and shoot carb cleaner ( any parts store even WMart has it) though every hole you can see just to make sure everything is clean. There is a black rubber gasket on one side of the car be that is very sensitive just note where everything is located and make sure you do on a clean surface and not in a hurry......Hey Freeburn (very cool name btw) did you take the carb apart to clean it? or is it possible to clean it without having to disassemble everything? and what did you use to clean it? thanks
....when dealing with me, try to think cro-magnon, what would a cro-mag do? or not do? would a cro-mag have a camera? not likely, so Mischa prob. doesn't have picture making machine either( i don't)....me could borrow someone's picture maker machine maybe....if i can i will because that is a good ideaTake pics as you go. They are pretty simple, but it could help to have something to look back on.

....that is darn close.....the tool kit is spot on.....could use more body hair tho...unless that is mischa after a long day of waxing....sorry.....this is starting to derail like so many of my posts
I'm late to the party but mix is not the issue. I run 32:1 in everything. 50:1 is just a bin lean. More an epa thing.
