On 2_cycle carbs: turn Hi and Lo screws in (until they lightly bottom)
half turn at-a-time (make a note of each); spray WD or carb cleaner
into the holes (with spray tubes); turn screws until they lightly
bottom and back-out as you previously noted for each.
No dis-assembly. No running around. Cost $0.

That's step 3. Step 1 is determine it is a gas problem. Step 2
is dump gas and replace with fresh.

Then step 3. . . . If all that fails- Step 4 is buy a new carb and go
do something else until the UPS guy drops it off.
