1) Get good manual.
2) Get several ex-margarine tub containers.
3) Get carb cleaner, WD-40, clean rags, ventilate room, no heat sources.
4) Go slow.
5) Go slower.
6) Reassemble.
7) Float bowl clearance is critical. So is cleanliness. LBC shops have a
special tool
to check the clearance -- you may want to borrow one or take it in to check at
that
stage.
8) Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to believe you can do it.
Good
luck, Mr. Camhi.
