Just finished up cleaning a bunch of 94's. I've always used toilet bowl cleaner as I stated earlier. The carbs look showroom quality as usual. One problem, when stealing the wifes toilet bowl cleaner make sure it's not a "green" cleaner, baby shampoo is stronger.Make sure it contains hydrochloric acid and you'll have shiniest carbs on the block.

About how long do you let the carb(s) soak?

I don't really soak them, I use a chemical brush, dip them in the cleaner, work the brush into the crevises and rinse it off. Rubber gloves are nice for the large flat surfaces, just rub it and rinse. Been using this stuff for 30+ years. Gary

I saw a thread on the HAMB about vinegar, they were soaking parts in it and removing all rust. Some guys were filling kiddie pools to soak larger items. Plenty of examples to go from, some warned not to use it on aluminum and pot metal. As a plumber I have used it to soak showerheads and aerators, worked great.

thanks, Mark

The product that will work is   " Berryman Professional Chem Dip" Part  #0905    5 gal. is the only way it can be bought. O`Riellys Auto Parts has it at their Brownsburg IN. warehouse & other ones around the country I would think. Other professional auto parts should be able to get it,some of them say they can`t get it. Can you say  "E.P.A." Cost  $90.00 to $150.00 depending price rate you get. This is what I`ve used almost 60 years & it does`n harm any of the metals in carb. or transmision parts.It removes any thing including your skin if you don`t use rubber gloves. Remember if you want to get a can & share it, the top 1/3 of liquid is water that seals it from evaporating. It last for years if that water is on top.  Harry Hutten Jr.
