Going to pull the carbs and clean the jets. Recommendations for a solvent? I heard pine-sol? Hot or RT? Diluted or straight? Something better?
I was schooled some time ago after using this technique...a single strand of copper wire from a multistrand electrical wire
+1........bad choice using ANY metal, brass or otherwise to unplug jets. Least little 'scratch' WILL affect jets flow pattern. The larger mains, pointy round toothpic works the BEST, as it cleans the build-up off outer edges of jet holes spinning it with two fingersI was schooled some time ago after using this technique...
Copper is stiffer than aluminum... it'll scratch/bore-out the jet and you'll have a larger jet without knowing the size...
Fishing line or a strand from a poly broom is now my go to for pushing through the jet holes...
