Disassemble all of it, clean off all dirt, grime and unwanted stuff from
all parts, inspect parts for wear and tear and reassemble with the new
gaskets. When the carb is reassembled, do the basic settings as per
Haynes, before you install them. Haynes has a section on dismantling
carbs, and describes all parts and how to remove/replace. The section #s
are chapter 3, section 7 for overhaul, section 9 for adjustments.
