Hi Barbara,
I don't think the carb side has a water jacket plate.
You may have already done this but in case you haven't I would:
- check the outlet fitting on the manifold for rust that will block water flow to the muffler
- check the T fitting on the water plate for bits of past impeller blades
- check the outlet fittings of the water pump for bits of past impeller blades.
I used a dental pick and small putty knife to get all my junk out of the engine cooling area. That was 10 years ago and my 1982 engine has been running cool ever since. I don't think it will hurt the engine to hose out that area, but it will make a mess.
