NJ Boatbuilder, I’m currently using a Berryman chemical dip tank, but I find it doesn’t get all the deposits off the carb. I read somewhere that they changed the chemical strength in the dip tanks for EPA regulations? Possibly the Gunk version is stronger?
Travis, wow that’s Ultrasonics link you posted is a great unit. Made in the USA, 2 year warrantee, nice big tank. Looks like it made especially for carbs. At $477 it’s getting a bit past my budget, but I’m definitely now thinking about it.

This is the one I have been using and, yeah, you are right. It does an OK job but that’s about it. Better than the aerosol can carb cleaners however, IMO. I had a guy at one of our swap meets tell me that to make this work like the ‘old’ formula, put it into a crock pot and heat it up. I have purchased a couple of crock pots at garage sales (for $5 or less) but have not yet tried to heat this stuff up. The first warning on the can says ‘do not heat’. Also, the guy telling me about heating it up said to do it outside because the fumes are noxious. Sounds like spending $300 – $500 on an ultrasonic cleaner may be the better approach. Harder on your pocket book, but easier on your health!
