I have always poured some form of fuel injection cleaner in the tank to keep the carb and valves clean. Pour a hole bottle of Gumout or Seafoam into a full tank of fuel every 4 or 5 fill ups and it keeps my cub running great.
Four or five fill ups for me is a years worth of fuel so i'm doing this, this often to keep things from getting varnish built up on them.
If you have ever had a head off a cub you will know how bad carbon builds up around the valves.
Another quick tip ,
Pull the exhaust manifold off the motor and use the gasket to port match the manifold to the block. You will be amazed as to how far off the the ports are from being in aligment. Can't say it ads more power but it runs smoother. I have done this to several cubs with the same results. I have had the ends ports be off by .375 [3/8"] on a port that isn't quite one inch.
