Having used an electirc auger the last 5 years, and mainly fishing out of wheel-houses, my strikemaster lazer 2 stroke has collected dust for the past 5 years.

Planing to run and gun it tomorrow ,and the battery will not punch over 25 holes. So I tried to get old smoky goin, but no luck.

I'm sure something is gumed up in the carb. Short of taking that apart ( which is beyond my skill set) anything to add to new fuel to get it goin again?

Not really much you can add to clean it once its clogged up.BUT have you tried some fuel in the cylinder remove the spark plug and put splash of mixed fuel in it.Start it and do it a few times it may clear it where some carb cleaner added to the fuel then might help more.
