Re: cleaning my carb

there is only one way to clean a carb. Remove it and disassemble it. Clean it thoroughly and reassemble with a new kit. There are no shortcuts. You either do it right once or you get to do it two or three times.

Using a carb cleaner can get good results using the whole can..always worth a try if your not ready for that rebuild.

Re: cleaning my carb

do the rebuild and save a headache. If you do it right the first time and nothing changes, then you will know something else is wrong.
