Sorry to hear obout the tower of power motor. #6 was the one that always went out. I know they don't like running lean. Not positive about the difference in the back drag carbs. Looking it up in my shop manual but it doesn't cover them very well. The main/idle tube jets are different.

Book says 90hp .070main/.092 vent tube
115hp .072 or .074 main/ .092 or .096 vent tube
Depends on serial number.

I rebuilt a 90 inline 6 for a friend back in 1995. The way the pistons go in from the front, all at once, all on the crank as an assembly with very little clearance it really requires the special ring compressing tools and patience. To replace a piston or two is a lot of work because you must remove the crank to take a piston out (no removable cylinder heads)

Whatever you do, do it fast summer is about over. Hope this helps.
