ok i found a secret weapon to sludged up carbs
before this season of frozen everything i took a few filthy carbs to the test
i bought a 570 exciter MiC carbs were junk 10 years of varnish and rust
a stuck choke plunger
well i did learn this from trying it and the movie grand torino
if you have a stuck choke plunger MIC KEIHIN ETC it is made from brass , carb is aluminum.. take some plain old white vinager pour a little down the hole with teh stuck plunger and wait about 24 hours then it should come right out with no argument vinager is an acid that eats corrosion incl;yding rust acetic acid=vinager
so that choke issue was fixxed
next carbs are full of scumm
i took a small tub filled it with a mixture of
60 percent water , 39 percent vinager
added about 1 ounce of purple powerlike degreaser {{it was cheap}
i also added some pool chemical otherwise known as salt , rock salt or table salt would work
after 3 days of soaking all he scum came off anbd i cleaned her off with water first and then used carb cleaner
like brand new
i also did not feel like buying new needles and seats so i lapped the needle valves together with rubbing compound
it worked for me
