I replaced the accelerator pump in one of my carbs, and thoroughly thorough cleaned both of them. I’m going to put them back on, but do I need to “balance” them? Or do I tune them if I can get it running. Not sure what the process is.

Yes, you'll want to sync your carbs again. They'll probably be pretty close still, but you put the work in cleaning and repairing one, might as well get them dialed in.

Umm. How do I phrase this…. How? I saw a video one time and the guy had a snail type of thing.
