[QUOTE="sh00ter, post: 4030631, member: 24531"] Yeah thx, I was also aware of the chemdip from back in the day. I use simple green a lot if whatever I am cleaning allows for a rinse afterwards as I prefer to avoid solvent exposure when I can. But sometimes only harsher chemicals will get the job done :) I think a small plastic tub and put the carb in the tub with simple green 100% strength, spray it down and scrub with a toothbrush and then rinse with a hose on low pressure. That seems like a similar but preferable method over the kitchen sink and dish soap. I might be able to get most of it clean like that and then use brake cleaner as a final clean for all metal parts once it is fully disassembled. [/QUOTE]
