    Hi,
    The STX38 had a gravity-fed fuel system. It may be time to clean out the tank. Sediment can settle to the outlet the fuel line hooks to.
    For some reason that model seemed to have carbs wear more pronouncedly than some others. It would wear at the body where the throttle shaft entered and the seat for the inlet needle.
    Peace,
    Clarke
