Spray Nine about 20% with water I put the water in hot either from the tap or kettle so I don't waste heating time and I run it fairly hot in the machine too I often run it for about 30 min then turn it over and do 15-20 more minutes. I find it will clean a fairly nasty carb quite well. I do this a side job since I retired not many folks know much about carbs anymore or points for that matter!I have tried many. I do use regular tap water. I have tried vinegar, Lestoil, Greased Lightning, dishwashing liquid.
What do you recommend?
I would not say it totally removes the white oxidation but it helps I use a soft brass bristle brush after the main cleaning and then pop the carbs back in for 15 min after and they come out looking pretty good sometimes if they are not to bad they even have a bit of shine to them. one thing that kind of blew me away was I tried a needle and seat assembly that I knew was not very old but had been gummed up from bad gas popped it in with the carb in a small container for small parts and it cleaned it right up I popped it into a vm 36 I was building for an Everest 500 I am putting together and ran it it worked mint it was perfect so in a pinch it could be a good way to get a sled running if you can't find a new needle and seat assembly. the one thing that I find the ultrasonic won't do as well as a chem dip is the brass does not come out looking like new it is clean but a bit dull.Very good. i just bought a gallon for $22. Also, does it remove the white powder from oxidation on aluminum? I know it cannot repair the damage from oxidation, but the removal of the white crud would help.
In the photo they look almost plated! nice work.Paint and clearcoat but not the sealing face.
Hmmm I would have an issue with that! I wonder how many customers he has that powder coat metal with rust holes in it? Not the best customer service! that will sink him in the end!I have a lead on a NEW one. Fingers crossed.
Funny, the first powder coater said that I should have inspected it between blast and coating. LOL
Holy smokes where the heck did you come up with that!NOS.......
