Thanks again for all the invaluable suggestions! I'll let you know what I find.

Routine cleaning of the carb is quite easy, they're quite simple.
It's good also to differentiate between "backfire" & "coughing back"! Backfire is a loud KABOOM or popping out the KZHAUST PIPE, COUGHING BACK, is when it huffs white vapor out the back of the carb & STINKS to high heavens, like raw gas in the car, like, EAU-DE- CRAP GAS!! Bill W.
