In the past I've had really good luck with a product called Power Tune. I attach the garden hose adapter to the motor, run the motor at around 2000 RPM (just guessing here) then spray in the carbs. It will bog the motor, and smoke up the whole neighborhood, but it does a great job of cleaning everything out. Even cleans the carbon deposits off of the piston and cylinder. You can get it at boat shops. Just follow the directions on the can. A few days ago there was a thread on running the motor out of gas, not sure if you read it or not, but good info. I always run mine out when I get ready to get them out of the water. Just disconnect the gas line with the boat still in the water and just let it put out. Make sure you use the old plugs for power tuning, as it will foul them out. Hopefully this might help.
Good luck with the new grand baby.
