A carburetor is a device that mixes air and fuel in an internal combustion engine. It was invented by an Italian named Luigi De Cristoforis, in 1876.
Samuel Moray in 1826. It was a crude "bowl type" carburetor which you probably won't find any more due to fire hazard from misfires. The "reed type" I believe was next somewhere between 1826 and 1888. (There is some debate about the time and thus the order.) In 1885 Maybach and Diamler invented the "float style" carburetor and it evolved less after that.

HOW to clean snow blower carburetor?
Depends on how dirty it is if it is not to dirty you might get away with putting about a cap full of good carb cleaner in the gas and running it threw and spraying the external parts but if it is really bad you may have to take it of and dismantle it and soke parts in a good carb cleaning solution . If you are going to take the carb off and take it apart. Take a screwdriver and gently count the turns in on each jet and right them down and wear they are then take a pic of the position of the governor rod and controls). This will help you putting it back together. Good luck.

Why is the carburetor flooding and the engine will not crank?
Rarely a cylinder will fill with fuel from a seriously flooding engine, making it impossible for the engine to crank. Does the engine TRY to crank? Is the starter engaging? If it's truly filling the cylinder with fuel you should be able to pull the sparkplugs and crank the engine. When that happens fuel should come out of the sparkplug holes. Make sure that you have a couple helpers and some fire extinguishers with you just in case since you don't want that much fuel igniting under your hood.
Admittedly, it's an off-the-wall idea, but it actually can happen. If that isn't your problem, go after the individual problems. Replace the "needle and seat" in the carburetor to solve the flooding problem. If the cylinder isn't filling, track down the starter problems.
The fuel can wash away the oil on the cylinder walls and rings. Best to remove the plugs and shoot a little oil into each cylinder, unit you can easily crank over.

Will Removing the back box and replace it with another loud exhaust affect fuel consumption?
No, it will just sound loud. If you remove the cat pipe then it will affect fuel consuption.
If it's just the back box, it will just sound boy racerish. Answer- Having done this myself I think there was an effect on fuel consumption. By replacing the back box and replacing it with a sports exhaust you are increasing the air pass through in the engine and if you get more air in then your ECU should put more petrol in to keep the mixture the same.
Yes, that is called vapor lock.
