What do you use in it as your cleaner? I'm taking the plunge to try to do some of my own repairs on odd equipment that did not come from my regular dealers (they only work on what they sell). I have another guy I could go to but I want to learn and get over being intimidated. I bought a little ultrasonic cleaner. Going to be doing two gummed up carburetors to start with, one on an ancient Husqvarna push mower and one on a pressure washer. Both Honda engines. The list of stuff people seem to use is long and confusing. I understand Simple Green is not for aluminum bits. Interested in what folks with experience use. Thanks in advance, as always.  Kitties ETA: Yes I know I can buy new aftermarket carbs very inexpensively. That won't teach me how to rebuild them and that's one of the things I wish to learn.

This has served me well with aluminum parts: Simple Green Aviation For really nasty bits, I’ll soak things in a gallon of Berryman parts cleaner before buzzing em. |
