Not getting the carbs cleaned correctly is a definite possibility! When you say pickup tubes - are you referring to the small fuel lines that run to each carb, or something else? If it's those small fuel lines, what's the best way to clean them? Pressurized air? Carb cleaner?
In regards to the lower unit, I did remove the trim anode, and the bolt above it. The unit dropped about an inch, and would move back and forth/side to side, but wouldn't drop out completely. Is there something that connects it the the motor, or do the gear just slip together, and perhaps I did to pull a little harder to separate?
