My McCoullagh 5500w does not start anymore. I'm pretty sure it's a clogged carb.
Do they make kits for it?

I had that problem yesterday. I simply removed the bowl under the carborator and cleaned with starter fluid. I had to remove crank cover to remove it and had to remove carborator to put all back together. Just be careful when removing parts, there is a spring under the float in the bowl. It will fall out and get easily lost.
It took me about an hour to do it yesterday, but I could do it in about 10 mins now, pretty simple.
edit - plus I changed the spark plug

You can clean the carb and the jets, soak it in freak gas, get the funk out and it should work. New gas works too.
