Wow...quick reply...thanks for the more detailed info as per carb adjustment.

Never heard of plastic "horse hair" filtration media...but, if it does not become too brittle and fall apart....I am not worried. I have however poured kerosene into the top half/cover with the "horsehair" in it...swished the kerosene around for 3-5 min then poured out the mean looking goo....did this twice until what came out was somewhat clean....also cleaned the SOS pad like media in the lower half as well as replace the oil at the bottom and cleaned out the whole housing. Hopefully, kerosene was the proper cleaning fluid to use.

Thanks again,
