I finally managed to pull my carburetors out today and am planning to clean them tonight. A friend of mine told me that I could just drop them in a bath of varsol for cleaning, but I am not too sure about that method. I also have a spray can of carb cleaner which can really flush those jets out (CLEAN - R - CARBS), and also a bottle of that stuff your supposed to add to your gas tank (which doesn't work shit all) (CARB Medic). What should my approach be here? They look quite dirty on the outside as well as the inside.

Word, Just disasmble and clean them.fjman said:Dipping the entire assembly is usually reserved for berryman's, and if you dip anything rubber, kiss it goodbye (including diaphrams, float seats, and orings...)
You already have them off, right? Spend the extra time and do it right! Take EVERYTHING apart (keeping good notes, btw) and clean it all.
You've got the float height, the float needle arrangement, the emulsion tube, the needle, the slide assembly, the idle mixture setup, the choke feed, the choke plunger to worry about.... may as well tear it all down to the basics and worry about it all WELL, yanno?
Breaking down carbs sucks, but having to do it twice sucks more
