I'm guessing this carb may need a little cleanup before it gets reinstalled.


anyone else got some truly ugly discoveries to show?

I'd put it in a bucket of used motor oil and just walk off and forget about it for at least a month, longer won't hurt. Then put in carb. cleaner and let it set a few days. Don't repair any damaged places with J.B. Weld as gasoline deteriorates it. That will usually get rid of corrosion. You can use a cutting torch tip cleaner to clean out the passages, but be careful.

Get a coleman stove, (or some kind of outside burner), get a pot of water (I usually add some lemon juice as well) and bring it to a hard boil. Disassemble the carb as best you can, and just boil the heck out of it for a few hours. That'll usually clean it up well. Had an old army guy tell me that, and it worked one the last carb I rebuilt. 

 
Oh....make sure you use "soft" water. We have really hard water where I live, and the first time I tried this I just used hydrant water, without thinking. Cleaned the carb, but left it chalky white. Boiled again in bottled water, and that helped remove the deposits.

so, Creston -
you don't think taking it in to the kitchen and asking Joyce to keep it on the boil while she cooks would work?
uh... neither do i.  I have an old barbecue I use right outside my little shop.

and Leon - this is a "backup" carb now so I'm in no hurry.

right now I have the carb and the sediment bowl (in similar condition) soaking in some old gas... then I'll move on to the boiling water, then finish up with a 3 day soak in the new formula and not so strong Berryman dip and see what I've got.
I have great passage poke-out wire so I'm pretty sure I can get this working with little elbow grease but lots of patience.
thanks for the help.
but I still would like to see some other "horror" pictures...Dead

drobCA....I tried boiling mine in the house. After about 15 minutes, the smell was unbearable, so I took the pot outside, rigged up a gas burner, then boiled a couple hours out there, while the windows of the house were open, trying to air it out!

Looks like some of the Carbs that come in to me for rebuild. Looks like something was living in them. Glassbeader will clean that up lickity-split.  You may have to take a dremel tool to it and smooth out the float walls and floor of the rust worm really got to it. Looks like it did..... Renew the floats.

Hadda I 400 carb that was worse'n that.  Found it buried in the sand, beneath the tractor, in a junkyard...  Took it to rebuilder, and told him he'd earn his money on this one...Wink

I don't have any pics, but the MS on my OC46 had stalactites and stalagmites totally filling the cavity . The weird thing is, I had the engine popping a few times while pulling it before I took the carb off to check it out.

yeah, Steve -
no glass beader (yet) but zero prob... I love my rototools and a nice bench job that i can do while watching a movie.

and Charlie - were your "growths" hard or soft?  this thing was absolutely 100% full of white powdery stuff except for a couple of places on the walls where there are hard white/grey deposits.
