Cleaning carb while on car
Minus dropping parts in motor any other reason not to remove air horn and clean the top half of the carb?
Car starts up runs but has a slight miss at part throttle causing it to fail smog. Can I just remove the air horn and clean all the needles and see if that helps it. Seems to be dribbling fuel out the primary jets.

You will need to remove the entire carburetor in order to properly disassemble it and clean it. If it's never been rebuilt it will likely need rebuilt by now. It would be a good idea to just rebuild it and ensure every aspect of the carb is clean and functional, not just removing the air horn to clean what you can from the main body.
