    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Cleaning question

I just disassembled my carbs for cleaning. I was wondering if I can dip the throttle slide for each carb as one piece or if i should break that down even more. Are there any components that will be damaged by the carb cleaner that I cannot see?
 
My CV carbs have rubber and plastic pieces that I wouldn't dip. I think the VM carbs don't have any rubber or plastic, but I can't really remember. So, depending on the type of carbs you have, either you may or you can't.

If there are any rubber or plastic pieces take tham off. Those thing s and carb cleaner dont get along real well.
 
Re: Cleaning question

There arent any rubber or plastic pieces in the slides or the linkage on top of them. If you do decide to disassemble and remove the slides, note that they are "keyed" and will only go back in aligned in one direction.
