« on: May 22, 2013, 11:52:16 AM »
An old timer showed me a trick that might help you, may want to wear some safety glasses or just be careful not to get anything into your eyes. spray some carb cleaner into the over flow tubes on both bowels using the straw for a good 5 seconds,then fill the bowels with gas through the over flows until full. Pump the pedal a few times to see if any thing is squirting. If not dump some gas down the carb have someone bump the key to fire it up, soon as it fires bump the throttle to bring the rpms up and use a towel to choke the carb. It should suck fuel right through the jets.

I'm pretty sure the can, I have seen both io and out boards converted to jets. Not sure which one would be easier though.

Yah they get mixed up and it happens, I'm guilty of it to.
And dude, that's s long a$$ shower arm.
And Glenn I think I have the perfect solution to this whole Situation........a temp/pressure release valve from a water heater! BAM! Run a straight hose from the pump to motor hell might as well use copper and hard pipe/sweat it in. Thread said t/p valve into the back of the intake manifold and poof perfection. It opens up at 160 degrees or 180 psi.
Problem solved. Done
