Are you saying you cleaned my carb with 'all sorts of crap!!' - looked remarkably clean in that case

Posted: **26 Sep 2006 10:21 pm**

indeed.. you'd expect it to be a tad browner

What i meant was its an actual solvent used in a parts cleaner but with 6months of grease and dirt etc added in!!! lol
