Is there a lube that you all use on the throttle blades, linkage that's under the throttle bores in the carb.Or do you all that has carbs just remove these carbs and spray something like WD40 in them to keep the corrosion down...........Thaxs wave

Lucas Safeguard Fuel Conditioner and Stabilizer, 16 oz ,this is your friend.....as per mark sullens using it for 4 years no issues. (wal mart) As far as wd-40 have you ever used it on a firearm not good, turns to a wax like substance ,I would use gun lube for long term storage. but if your talking about short term, I see no problem with wd-40 ...pat

I hose mine down with wd40.. before and after every outing.. I'm using a purpose-built prosystems e85 carburetor.. for a year-and-a-half now... and haven't even found anything white fuzz.. Billet aluminum and Brass jets are pretty durable and E85 safe
