Many years ago I purchased a carburetor cleaning system from Napa. Was a gallon bucket with a steel basket to soak carb parts in for rebuilding. The stuff had a distinct smell common to auto garages and machine shops when I was a kid, we'll say 40 years ago, it was a common thing. I have come to find that this soaking solvent that was used has been stopped due to enviormental issues. Would soften and desolve #2 permatex and would clean parts unbelieveably if soaked overnight.
Whats everyone using to soak out carb bodies before rebuilding today? I did an internet search and the solvents available with the soak type system seem to be not effective compared to the older systems per user comments.
Just went through hell with a motorcycle carb that plugged up from setting for 4 years. Took 3 disassembles with several cans of aerosol type carb spray cleaner, compressed air and a piece of MIG wire to unplug it and get it running...Whats the easier way to go as in soak it and assemble it....
