Re: Technical
If you are referring to a leakage test, filling the bowl with gasoline and placing the carb on a white paper towel overnight and check the fuel level and look for stains on the towel is how I've done it.

Re: Technical
I’ve read a few times to use rubbing alcohol since it dries quickly and completely. Haven’t tried it yet

I've used mineral spirits and a paper towel to check for leaks.
