Subject: Re: Carburetor
Hi Rickard and members:
I called my friends at Mikuni Carburetors on this problem this morning
since
they supply carburetors for many uses, including marine, which are subject
to
corrosion. Their response to me was that they recommend cleaning with a
solvent, such as MetalPrep. This type of solvent contains a high
percentage
of phospheric acid.
Beware!!! I at first thought about AlumiPrep but another source
recommended
NOT using AlumiPrep on cast aluminum so that shot down another idea of
mine.
I included this paragraph so one of you do not make a mistake and use it.
Another less expensive method may be to use something we consume quite
often
... Coca Cola. It has a rather high percentage of phospheric acid also so
I
would not let the carb soak in it too long. I just received a flyer from
a
local auto repair shop and it contained some interesting things about
coke.
It will:
1. Dissolve a steak in 2 days.
2. Dissolve an nail in 4 days.
3. Clean the corrosion from battery terminals.
4. Remove rust from chrome car bumpers.
5. Loosen rusted bolts by applying a cloth soaked in coke for several
minutes.
6. Clean grease from your clothes by emptying a can into the washer with
your normal detergent.
7. Clean road haze from windshields.
So each of us can make use of coke in our 300 garages.
Good luck.

Subject: Re: broken bolts
The trick of welding a nut on is a great idea, wish I'd thought of it! It
won't break off because the studs really aren't in there very tight. (they
don't need to be) The trick is to get a good hold on it somehow and the
welding method (mig welder) sounds like a great way. The heat might even
help the process. I'm going to try it next time I have this
problem........and there will be a next time!
Ryan.

Subject: Re: Carburetor, Coke?
Interesting indeed! My experience with "Coke" is that is makes an
excellent
"glue". You want something to stick together?.....put some Coke on both
surfaces and let it sit in the sun for a couple hours. Once that sugar in
the Coke begins to dry and harden, (like inside the little passages in a
carburetor), you'll wish you had simply bought some over-the-counter carb
cleaner in a spray can.

I guess you have to use diet-coke, sugar-free!

Yep, I admit I used some to assemble my SureGrip unit... LOL....
http://home01.wxs.nl/~meine119/ring/03.gif
But there are enough carb-cleaners on the market to suit your needs I
think.
And only the best solution is to just take off the carb and disassemble
and clean the
bowls and passages....

Herman Meiners.
