Berryman's Chem-Dip Professional Parts Cleaner (1 gal). It's a chlorinated product, and it will ruin plastic & rubber parts, so you have to take everything apart.

This may help, Patton's carb cleaning diagram.

I had cleaned my carbs thoroughly and shot all the passages. But still wasn't running quite right. Used this diagram to spray the passages again then followed by air. Some kind of glob shot out. Never expected that considering how well I thought I had cleaned them previously.

Cv?

Constant Velocity. They're more forgiving of elevation changes and stingy on gas. A bitch to tune with performance changes.

Come on Blink, sort it out mate. Don't you have the internet where you live?

2 sec google search on CV carbs... inquisitive questioning welcome, spoon-feeding those too lazy to even bother thinking, forget it.
