Carburetor Cleaning
WARNING
Clean the carburetor in a well-ventilated area, and
take care that there is no spark or flame anywhere
near the working area; this includes any appliance
with a pilot light. Because of the danger of highly
flammable liquids, do not use gasoline or low flash
-point solvents to clean the carburetor.
CAUTION
Do not use compressed air on an assembled car-
buretor, the float may be crushed by the pressure.
Remove as many rubber or plastic parts from the
carburetor as possible before cleaning the carbure-
tor with a cleaning solution. This will prevent dam-
age or deterioration of the parts. The carburetor
body has plastic parts that cannot be removed. Do
not use a strong carburetor cleaning solution which
could attack these parts; instead, use a mild high
flash point cleaning solution safe for plastic parts.
Do not use wire or any other hard instrument to
clean carburetor parts, especially jets, as they may
be damaged.
Disassemble the carburetor.
Immerse all the metal parts in a carburetor cleaning solu-
tion.
Rinse the parts in water.
When the parts are clean, dry them with compressed air.
Blow through the air and fuel passages with compressed
air.
Assemble the carburetor.
