[QUOTE="YamahaC40Guy, post: 91164, member: 953"] Hey guys, I'm wanting to get this old bird in the water, but it's been sitting (unused) for the better part of a decade. I was told it was winterized back then, and I'd say a liberal amount of oil was used! lol Anyhow, while it looks clean on the outside, I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to clean the carb? I have NEVER done any work on an engine, unless you count changing air filters, plugs, wiper blades on old Jeeps. Anyhow, is this something I should attempt and if so, what should I watch for? Is anything going to fly off and get lost? I'm careful, but the last thing I want to be doing is searching for parts because of some error on my part. Help!! Rob [/QUOTE]
