Default Re: Carb Rebuild

The carburetor cleaner you get in the gallon can at auto parts stores is a very good way to go. It does not affect the brass plugs. I let carburetors soak at least overnight. Soak the jets, floats etc... Also is a great parts cleaner too. Just get as much grease off miscellaneous parts as you can to make it last longer.

Do not store the metal can of cleaner on a metal shelf or on a concrete floor. For some reason it makes the can start to rust after a while and it will leak. Put it on a small piece of plywood, rubber etc...
