Check your fuel filter. If the cleaner had loosened any crap in your tank it gould have clogged the filter. If there IS a lot of crap on the filter, your gas tank might need to be dropped and cleaned out well.
The other possibility is that the cleaner had damaged some old rubber parts of the carb (if they were very old.) Some of that cleaner is pretty strong.
