Re: Carb crud

quote Jerry Ahrens:

I’ve been using PowerTune/ Engine tuner to clean carb’s for a long, long time. I spray it through the carb, then follow up with a rinsing of aerosol carb cleaner. My personal preference is B12 ChemTool. Lastly, I use compressed air to check all passages. The Power Tune will clean the worst varnish and gum deposits quickly. It’s nasty stuff so wear gloves and have good ventilation! I have a friend of mine that’s a Mercury instructor…. he used to always say that marine mechanics life spans will be shorter because all of the chemicals and exhaust fumes we work around. He may be right.

Very likely he is right.
