  • Carb gunk

    Cleaning the carbs (flushing bowls) while still on Partzilla. I wanted to flush the bowls before I took them off for cleaning #3 was starting to drip then stopped. Even tried a little wire up the drain and took the drain screw out, no go. 3 outa four ain't bad.

    Notice the color of #1 and the water at the bottom in #1 and 4 must have been parked on the side stand to dry out

    Partzilla runs

    I made a 90° bend with heat (lighter) in the straw for my spray carb cleaner then added another length of straw with shrink tube. Opened up the float drains one by one and sprayed up into the bowls. Got them all flowing like faucets then added more fuel/berryman cleaner with a big syringe into the fuel lines to the carbs. I repeated this until no more gunk came out filled the bowls with good fuel and it fired right up sounded good too.
