I thought I had dumped the gas out last year but must not of. Dumped it out and put fresh in. Wouldn't want to fire up so used some starting fluid in the spark plug. After 4 times it finally would stay running with the throttle being feathered. When I let it idle it dies. I have to start it with half choke. I am guessing the old gas may have varnished up a little so was wondering if I could just spray carb cleaner in the air filter if I remove it or do I need to pull the carb off? I am no carb guy so hoping to just spray it.
