> I gotta go along with Russ.  Back when I was in Germany in the Army, I was
trying to clean some carburetors.  Back then, you couldn't get simple stuff
like gunk and carburetor cleaner in Germany.  I got them as clean as I could
in diesel fuel, hosed them off with water, then decided to try Easy Off Oven
Cleaner.  It was the kind that said get the oven hot.  So, I sprayed the
carburetor housings, and put them on a cookie sheet in the oven at 425
degrees for 30 minutes (like chocolate chip cookies!). The smell started all
at once, and no amount of fans, open windows, or anything else would clear
the stench from the kitchen.  Six months later, breakfast buscuits still
tasted like Weber carburetors cleaned with Easy Off!
