Well the carb cleaner I had sucked. It was from advancezone etc and it was
so safe you could water your plants with it. I did some research on the net
and I found that what I wanted was lacquer thinner. It has all the best
ingredients like toluene, acetone, etc.

So I soaked the carb and intake in this yesterday while I was doing some yard
work and they cleaned up pretty good with no real scrubbing. I still want to
take a brass wheel to it all for final clean up, plus I'll reuse the thinner when I
pull the jets as well. No pics yet. I'll post them after I wire brush it all and
before I pull off any jets or venturis.

Got the rebuild kit in and it looks complete. Now I just have to drop by HF
tp pick up some indexed drills and a few other odds and ends for my dremel
supplies.
