I figured i would blow everything out with compressed air. So far i have #5 #3 #15 jets from the top carb soaking in cleaner.

They should be metal on an 85 150 as that is the old style cross flow engine. As for cleaners, I use EVINRUDE engine tuner in teh gallon jug to soak them. I also have an ultrasonic cleaner that I use if they aren't that bad.
