Does each carb serve it's own piston/cylinder?

I have a 3 cylinder 60 HP Johnson and i'm wondering if things like fogging oil, seafoam, etc sprayed in the center carb will reach all three cylinders or if it will only reach the center cylinder?

There is a balance passage way between carburetors.-----But yes the carburetors are dedicated to one cylinder.-----Fogging oil should be sprayed into each carburetor.

Thank you. In that case, how do you keep the oil in cylinder 1 from burning up while spraying it into the other 2 carburetors? Get multiple cans and have a helper to spray into all three simultaneously?

Once again there is proof that oil and 2 stroke motors is not well understood.-----The oil does not instantly burn up.-----It coats all the parts !-----Spray it in # 1 --then 2 and 3.-----And you are done with protecting the internal parts.
