The 1991 is almost the same but this one is 1990: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1990...00248514918QQptZMotorsQ5fManualsQ5fLiterature

When the pistons move, they create the vacuum that opens the reeds and pulls fuel from the float bowls. The reeds would have to be damaged or the carburetors badly clogged to prevent that from happening.

carb cleaner may not be enough to clean the jets. if you have compressed air use that. if not small monofilament (4 or 6 lb test) can be used to clean the jets. also check to see if the magnet may have done any damage to your timer base.

Check and clean all 3 orifices and the capillaries that run from them. The most likely ones to be clogged are the high speed jets in the float bowls because they are at the bottom where any junk accumulates.

See the thumbnail for the size; you can grind the sides off a small screwdriver.
