Did the carb this morning.. tough nut to take out on the port side but I used Leroy’s trick and tilted the rewind spring 🙂
Carb was essentially very clean.. I gave it a good shot of carb cleaner . LOw speed needle was undamaged …. found the cork float near new 🙂 🙂 but I still gave it a light coat of medium density cryo glue sprayed with a mist of alcool/baking soda mix to instantly turn it rock hard. The rest will be general wiping and degreasing surfaces to be touched up when I can paint outside.
a small 3″ travel spray bottle with 90 proof rubbing alcool and a 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda makes a great accelerant.. dirt cheap compared to commercial stuff ! rings and cyl looked good when I popped the PH to inspect lower housing for carbon build up .
