Default Gamefisher 1.2

I got a Gamefisher 1.2 hp trolling motor with my boat. It cranks and spins,
but has varnished gas. I drained the gas, and will take off the fuel line,
filter, on/off valve, etc, and flush with clean gas. 50:1 is recommended on
the plate.

Anyone have one of these? Helpful hints? I want to use it for slow
trolling for bass and trout. I talked to a couple of people who had them
and swore by them. See a lot of them on ebay under Tanaka. This one is an
old Sears.

Gotta modify the barrel so I can hang it in the water and get it running.
Doesn't look too complicated, probably just some cleanup and gunk removal.

Is there any solution one uses to soak carb bodies to get off that crud?
