Just a quick post to call attention to the new-and-improved Carb Cleaning 101 tip. It's at the very top of the forum, please take a look!

Okay, after rereading it, I would have the suggestion of taking the tops off first, along with the vacuum slide/needle combo before taking the bowl off.

The text about the slide needle and C clip is a little misleading or ambiguous, it first mentions the large C clip that holds the whole thing together, but then mentions the needles adjustability by moving the C-clip, but doesn't necessarily mention the SMALL silver C-clip that is still attached to the slide needle.

I think the warning of NOT chem dipping the bodies should be in bold text for emphasis.

I would suggest a recommendation of once the float pin is removed, that folks use something like emory cloth to file down the pin near the head so that it's not an interference fit, so that it will easily slide into and back out of the float posts without needing any pressure, tapping in place, to prevent possible future post breaking. A note that the float bowls will secure the float pins so that they won't/can't slide out anyways can provide the justification for this.

That's all I can think of for now!
