I have begun minor restoration on my 1970 Christmas present. Removed the carb, which hasn't run since the mid 90's. Much dirtier and nastier than I expected (hoped for). Some Youtube videos talk about dip cleaning carburetors in a basket affair. I believe that's what's going to be needed. Spray carb cleaner barely touches the crud in the bowl and nooks and crannies. Below is a picture of the disassembled carb. I have a rebuild kit from DrATV. Some questions please:
Please tell me what product I can buy to dip/soak my carb. And what's a good way to clean after soaking?
I cannot figure out how the throttle sleeve is attached to the throttle cable and don't want to damage the sleeve trying different things. I'll be getting new cables.
Is the screen at the intake replaceable?
Thanks as always. Don
