Paul,
That might do the trick for you. Might as well give the carb a good cleaning once you take it off. Once that mixture screw fouls or corrodes adjustments are just out of wack. Small combinations of carb problems can cause problems. I find that once I pull a carb I clean the whole thing and have it done with.

You can look for a sheen on the water when you start up and idle....once the choke goes back in, that sheen should go away.
