I'm trying to get my old 100 running, and the 1st thing has been to pull the carb and get it cleaned up, inspected, repaired, adjusted....Whatever it needs.
It ran as it sits back in 2003, but its been sitting since then.
I'm having trouble getting it cleaned up tho.
I've had it soaking in the parts washer with NAPA's Kensol for about 3 days now.
Even scrubbing it with the Kensol and a brass brush isnt getting the job done. (But its sure doing a number on my back, leaning over the washer for an hour at a time).
So...I'm looking for ideas on what to use for a cleaner that might work better.
I wish I could get my hands on some mercuric acid to use as a quick dip. Even if I had some tho, I dont know if even a quick dip would eat into the cast metal.
Any suggestions?
Also, carb is a Carter, I'm assuming Model N. (I cant read anything other than Carter, because of the old paint and filth).
I dont see any procedures listed in the Kohler manuals for Carters...Are they similar enough to just follow the Walbro procedures AND specs?
Thanx a bunch.
