Alcoa 5.5 GPM HOT/COLD Skid with 20Honda Motor Will Not Start

Just an update. Removed carburetor which was not at all difficult. The only bothersome part is getting all the stuff around it out of the way. The linkages came off nicely.There are two 10mm bolts holding it in place. I used a carburetor cleaner along with Q-Tips to clean around butterfly and choke. Was about to disassemble bowl, but decided against it because it as not coming apart easily. Rather than fuss with it, I simply left it alone. Reassemble everything and it started like a charm. I also installed a fuel shut-off valve so that I can run the motor until it cuts off in this way I would leave very little if any fuel in the carburetor. Thanks for everyone's help and input. Thanks for the diagram Russ J. it was very helpful.
 
You're welcome Andy. glad you got it sorted out.
