Warning Not a Cafe-Brat-tracker- Resto Mod of 98 Magna

so I left the brass in the carb cleaner for 2 days. Pulled it all out and even after vibrating for half and hour. changing the cleaner and doing it again for half an hour then letting them sit. 2 of the 4 pilots are still plugged solid and some of the brass has corroded away on other jets so I don't think they are salvageable. Ordered a rebuild kit for them. all new brass, o-rings, floats etc. so will strip the carbs completely and just replace it all. Better that way than discovering after that a jet has become over sized or there is still crud someplace that makes it run like crap.

Yeah, wise move and pretty much no choice anyway. Like Mike Holmes says; Do It Right!

Yep. these carbs are shit to re-install so I don't want to have to do it multiple times for sure.

Thanks. It usually works but these were extra bad, never had them so green. Usually os the brown/black varnished gas. This is like they sat in pure water for 5 years.
