When running, does the float pin stay down? If not, there is a fuel flow issue to the carb.
Does fuel leak out of the carb? If so, the float pin and/or seat need to be addressed.
Have you checked the condenser with a real condenser tester?
Do you hear any squeaking or hissing when it runs? (That is, are the crankcase gaskets intact?)

Here is a link to a video I’ve done on the folding N. Should answer some of your questions. – https://youtu.be/i9NiPC126fY?si=zPQGp4LrEpOQPOIp
A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.

I have any number of things I use cleaning up motors. It depends on what your trying to remove. A guy I met, who is also into these, told me about the copper cylinder paint. Hard starting and no power may indicate low compression. Try it out of the water and see if it speeds up. Your carb number comes up as being for a homelite product from 1946-47. Take another look at the number. There is a video to mine running . Does your carb look like mine? I feel this carb is too big for the size of the power head IMO. This motor, while cool, is just a collection of parts used on other motors. Its a guesstimate on my part that there may only be 100 remaining, not a fact. Video Link. – https://youtu.be/XPXjFZcMOl8
