I'm bored. I'm gonna go outside in a few minutes and put that carb in a bucket I got (an old metal popcorn bucket...should work) and get it put in some cleaner.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone

I finally got the carb clean....gonna let it soak some more overnight then I'll put in the various small parts to soak for a day or so. Maybe by Saturday I can have it back together and be able to put it on. I do need to pick up a clear fuel filter though, so I can check to see that no junk is in the fuel that could clog up the carb.

I love clear filters, when it wont start they give you a fast way to tell if it is getting fuel or not.
