does any body still sell the old immersion bath carb cleaner?

[greg g]

I have been using the spray stuff and it works ok on the external stuff but I think both my carbs need a good soaking before driving season arrives. I know that you can get a gallon can of gunk but I wonder if its anymore effective than the spray. NAPA has the 5 gallon cans but I'm not going into the rebuilding business. Any one aware of other choices?

My local Bumper to Bumper sells it in one gallon cans.

I got a gallon at Autozone last fall. Had a dipping basket in the can.

I recently bought the gallon size of Gunk from my local Farm and Fleet. I used it for my snowblower carb. It worked fine, though I don't think it's the same stuff available 20,30 (wow, now that I think about it, 40) years ago. Also, I thought the basket inside the can could be a little bigger, might have to experiment with that if you're cleaning an automotive carb. I've also soaked carbs in lacquer thinner with some success. Best of luck either way.

back in the day I had access to a very large ultrasonic cleaner..I was know to turn out a number of carbs here and there...4 gang motorcylce manifolds, Porsche tripple webers etc etc..now that is the way to clean parts...and for any item that could not be immersed in water..you can put pur media of choice in another container and the ultrasonic action transferred..best of both worlds..

to my surprise they converted one of our bath process to use gun cleaning solvent...

so I should yell at it in a high pitched voice while its soaking????

Autozone has it for 22 bucks. I've bought two cans. The first gallon I accidentally tipped over in the garage...Sigh...Talk about panic, that stuff does a number on rubber, let alone the environmental damage!

I got a gallon at O'Reilly Auto.....seems like 20-some bucks.

Has the basket......but it's not handy for dunking the complete

carb.

I stopped buying the carb cleaners when I discovered lacquer thinner was much faster in dissolving the gunk.

A 1 barrel will fit in the smaller can dad has. I think its a 1 gallon. He bought a 5gallon from napa to do a 4bbl for a 66 new yorker though. Both work great.

I have been using kerosene being to cheap to buy carb cleaner but I will have to try the lacquer thinner
