And so I DID remove the carb again. I found a little sediment in the
bowl; I cleaned out the float valve; and checked the floats by "sailing"
them in the bowl, full of gas. (Sadly, there was no room for my rubber
duckie.)
The floats WOULD stay above water, but not by much; they have a definite
downward "tilt" to them. So I have ordered new ones....
