Quote: letting it set the time you mentioned should be fine. I think as you said just poor gas (especially E10) is known for that, not from using starting fluid tho starting fluid is reportedly hard on an eng (I use it tho when I have to)
Damn.... I know gas is bad nowadays but is it THIS bad???
I noticed this today as I was cleaning the venturis. They weren't really that dirty but I got to looking at what I thought was dirt and realized that either the carb had a bad casting when I got it and I never noticed until now, or that I'm really running my car off of sulfuric acid
Is this going to be so bad where I might as well replace the carb? Or could I minimize it by carfully applying some JB Weld? I'd almost rather not go that route- as good as JB is, I shudder to think what could happen if that managed to flake off and fall into the engine while it was running....
