    This is what I got.

    It looks vile,it smells WAY worse.Don't use it in a garage attached to your house.

    Only left my varnished to immobility 1000 carbs in for about 6 hours.May have to insist on this stuff,I did.

        The carbs on my GS750 were pretty gummed up, the slides wouldn't move at all. I'm blaming the petrol/ethanol crap that you have to use over the pond





        Fortunately I have access to an industrial ultrasonic bath at work, I dropped the carbs in it one morning and took them out at the end of the day



        There's a bit of residue from the chemicals used but it cleans up nicely using WD40.
