Try Seafoam. It is a great product. Just pour some in the tank...it is made to even been ran at full strength for an extreme flush, so don't worry about the mix ratio too much.

Put some Seafoam in a spray bottle and spray it into the carb while it's running. You'll need to give it some gas to keep it running, but that will clean a lot of stuff out too.

Just be sure to do that outside. It will smoke quit a bit.

Seafoam is a great product and have used it alot in 2 stroke machines and 4 stroke. Another great product I use quite often is Chevron injector cleaner with Tecron in concentrate, avalible at most auto parts. This is a superb cleaner and can be used in all types of fuel, even diesel to clean sticky fuel gauge floats.

Another option I personally like to use a small amount of BG 44K works just as good if not better IMHO.
