The brass fitting on the intake was not bad, but the small port from the side of the flame trap housing was plugged solid. With some considerable careful effort, I pushed through a 1/8" thick plug of gunk. This, along with replacing the innards, I believe has solved my problem, including the not-previously-mentioned fuel smell coming from the heater, which I'm guessing was caused by crankcase ventilation being achieved via the oil filler cap and adding to my run-on sentence!

Again, thank you guys for all your help, and no, I don't speak japanese with the exception of what you find in Styx music.

Eternally grateful,

Bill
