"The motor was from my uncle t

"The motor was from my uncle that passed. It has been sitting in a barn for 15-20 years my aunt said. I drained the gas, blew the fuel line from the tank to the carb out and let freash gas run thru the line. I also poured water thru the water flush screw and changed the lower end grease. I noticed the carb is leaking at the seal. Is there any where I can get a carb kit? Also any info on the fuel mixture and where to set the fuel mixture screws to get it to start. I just wrapped a rope and pulled it over a couple times. Also what spark plugs and gap does this motor use? Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks."

Sitting that long would strip the entire fuel system .Fitting carb kits, lines ect.Rubber would have deteriated.Impeller would require changing.
Would look at getting a manual, saves a lot of head scrathing.

Thanks Scott. Does anyone have

Thanks Scott. Does anyone have any idea where I could get parts? I called the older marinas around me and they have nothing. Or maybe if another impeller would work from another motor that might be avalible?
