A good thorough cleaning never hurts as long as you can get it all put back together correctly. If you use the dip bath method, make sure you remove all the o-rings and rubber parts (diaphragm and TEV diaphragm).

If you decide to clean it or not, you have to get that A/F mix screw back in functional condition.

If you decide to make a paperweight out of the stock carb, here’s a post on my trials and tribulations installing the Keihin-style PWK38 —>

A good starting point for the jetting is where I quit tinkering with mine:

Pilot Jet #32
Main Jet #125
E-clip in the middle groove on the needle (it comes this way when you buy it)

The manufacturer installed jets are HUGE. You can’t use those and you have to buy extra pilot and main jets. I’ve had good luck with the cheap jet kits you can buy on Amazon.
