The usual solvents will remove the grease and muck, but is there
anything that will remove the stains before I dismantle the carbs for
rebuilding? Thanks. >>
David:
Two things come to mind. First, if you have the carbs dismantled and want to
clean the metal bodies, I have had success with carb cleaner in a gallon can
from NAPA. I wear rubber gloves and make wire "holders" to hook through the
item I am cleaning and then hook the wire over the edge of the bucket.
The other is Mag wheel cleaner. It is a phosphoric acid product and does a
pretty good job of cleaning aluminum.
