carb cleaning

i have my carbs in bits and wondering what's best to clean the varnish stuff off with
i was thinking the spray you get might not get every where and was wondering if soaking in vinegar over night would be better or will it dissolve the alloy

 

Thinners is good for petrol staining.

 

2 pack or celly thinners matty dude
White vinager is very good for removing corrosion but leave it in two long and it will eat the carb

 

This is one of my carbs before i put it in the ultrasonic cleaner

 

And after,

 

Pics of afterwards please

I bought a small cheap ultrasonic cleaner recently and im impressed enough that i will be buying a larger one when ive the funds

 

very nice but hard for me to justify the cost of a cleaner for the use it would get

 

Do you have a palm sander or a flat sander for woodwork matty?

If so then strap it with no paper fitted to a tub and drop your carb parts in with some thinners and turn it on
Its not ultrasonic as such but makes a very good agitator

 

the after picture is above^

 

What cleaner have you got dude the after pic is very impressive

 

Like this matty dude

 

I like that. Will try it this weekend.

 

If using thinners make sure you check it doesent melt or soften the plastic tub first
Its not ultrasonic as the guy claims but it does agitate the solution very well

 

Got my cleaner from here, http://mistralie.co.uk/collections/...asonic-cleaner-for-carburettors-machine-parts

 

Is that just normal paint thinners you use?

 

I meant the actual ultrasonic cleaning machine not the solution
Ive just been using hot water and washing up liquid in mine so far

 

Sorry, this is the one, http://www.amsmaterials.com/products/B3510-Capacity-of-1%2d1{47}2-Gallons.html

 

I tried washing up liquid in mine to start with, and then i tried the proper carb cleaning solution and its like night and day

 

Thanks for that i am off to get some thinners and make a mess of the garage

 

You might try immersing it in a pan of brake cleaner. Still needs a toothbrush scrub and blow through, tho'. A can of air-duster works well if you haven't got an air line.
