Two cylinders both served by the same carb and neither working. 
Remove the air cleaner and look down the carb throad. Do you see fuel 
spraying in as you move the throttle?

Makes me wonder if some dirt got in the carb as a result of the hose 
work you did. If that is blocking off the fuel, then that would 
explain it.

Or could a jet have fallen out, making it too rich to burn on that 
side?

Check inside the carb bowl for the fuel level.
