Can't get carburetor clean
Put a the float bowl section of the carburetor into an ultrasound machine with straight vinegar. I ran it for 3 hours and still can't get it clean. There's a dusty black coating on it now that won't come off. Tried soaking it in carb cleaner but that's not taking it off either. Anybody?

Re: Can't get carburetor clean
I don't know what an ultrashound machine and vinegar is all about - why didn't you just soak it in the carb/parts cleaner to begin with?

Re: Can't get carburetor clean
You need a ultrasonic that heats up and you need to use actual ultrasonic cleaning fluid, not vinegar. Soaking in carb cleaner works good to.

Re: Can't get carburetor clean
That's how I cleaned one up, soaked in the above carb/parts cleaner can overnight.

Re: Can't get carburetor clean
If using the ultrasonic cleaner try the hogdon solution. It works good. Best way would be the can of cleaner though.
