Otis Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 I have my carbs off for rejetting right now, but before i put 'em back on i'd like to clean them.. Can i just use carb or brake parts cleaner and spray them (inside and out) or will that hurt them in some way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fixitrod Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 Yep, what they said, but make sure you get every little circuit. Make sure it looks clean to the eye too because you dont' want to use compressed air and jam the dirt inside the circuits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sredish Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 How do you clean the cleavage on the girl in your avatar? Oh wait, I know that one, with my tongue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wassup350 Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Lol. If you have any clogs in any of the jets, i usually take a needle and just poke it through to loosen the gunk up then blast some carb cleaner through. You want em to be spotless pretty much.

brugal Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 I would say get the clymer it shows you how to take them apart ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theron Posted March 14, 2004 Report Share Posted March 14, 2004 I found out the best thing to use to clean the jets is to take the twisty tie off of a loaf of bread or something and take the paper off and use the wire inside to clean them. It does a great job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotulMonsta Posted March 14, 2004 Report Share Posted March 14, 2004 I would soak my jets in a cap of carb cleaner while I go to town on the carb body itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
