1) Yes I used the gallon of chem dip from walmart with the parts tray. The carb came out much cleaner then it was put in. I used the air compressor to blow though all the gas inlet and jet holes.
2) just in the throat. Doesn't leak anywhere I can see.
3) Yes, I put the whole kit in, needle, pin, needle holder, etc.
4) I didn't use Vaseline, but when I assembled the carb it was upside down (on work bench) and the gaskets stayed in place nicely. I get no leaking from the bowl.
