Thanks! I hadn't thought of plugging passages with beads, they're pretty tiny too wink I don't have those cleaners although some day I want to get an ultrasonic cleaner big enough to put a carb into up So I guess it's disassemble and soak time!

The "Berryman Chem-Tool Carb Dip" (comes in a gallon paint can with a basket) used to be some volatile whitish milky stuff that really worked. The last time I bought one, though, they'd changed the formula and it's brown and really different smelling. Probably more environmentally penguin-friendly but not as effective, just like the de-chlorinated carb cleaner sprays.... rolleyes

Anyhow the carb is complete, doesn't have any obvious damage, and was $5 so I don't have that much to lose wink
