[Mgs] Carb cleaning

[palte]

IIRC, when the carbs were new, they were not shiny, just dull.Verzonden vanaf mijn Samsung Galaxy-smartphone.

Aerosol carb cleaner will blast external oil/grime off the bodies and linkages as it (what we get in the UK anyway) is more powerful than other aerosols.  But it won't shine them up, just leave the alloy much the same as it was before they got mucky i.e. anything from polished to oxidised.If you want to go further you can take the covers off, noting which came off each carb, and take the pistons out - carefully - again noting which came from each carb.  The carb cleaner will blast black combustion residue off both in my experience, and from the inside of the body.  There is a slight risk of pushing something into the jets that shouldn't be there with that last part, unless you plug them with something like a toothpick perhaps.PaulH.----- Original Message ----- > What is a good way to clean SU carbs without removing them?>_______________________________________________Mgs at autox.team.netDonate: http://www.team.net/donate.htmlSuggested annual donation  $12.75Archive: http://www.team.net/pipermail/mgs http://autox.team.net/archiveUnsubscribe: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/mgs/palte@gmx.net
