find some gasoline and a match, and burn that motha down!

Be careful with that. I remember one day I decided to do that and being the careful guy that I am I got a long stick and ignited it and then went to the muffler, with gas in it, and touched it with the flame and WHOOOOPH, flame were shootin' out of it.(too much gas mabey)? It was pretty cool. First off, try poking around with a screw driver or somethin' like that and then placing it in a fire pit for 8 to 15 minutes and it should be cleaned out, just keep and eye on the muffler.(I've never actually placed one in the fire, i've just heard it could be done).

Good luck

Go to tech docs for carb cleaning. Do NOT run a wire into the idle jet, you'll ruin it.

Throw the exhaust in a campfire for 10 - 15 minutes to burn it out, if you'd like.

Purge the oil from the system (lines/tank), using the Honda service manual as a guide. You want all of that 10w30 out. Replace with injector oil from a cycle shop. Ensure operation of the pump and reconnect. Replace your plug.
