The cleaning fluid arrived today so I've done a couple of basic runs
1. A scabby set of VM29ss carbs. Gave them a couple of 15 minute cycles with just the float bowls removed. It unstuck the seized accelerator pump parts and cleaned all the jets and threads out nicely. A quick rub with some Scotchbrite and the float bowls came up very nice.
2. Had a quick 10 minutes run with some parts of the filthy Akrapovic system I picked up. It didn't get the crud off but it was far easier to remove afterwards where emery paper and WD40 had been struggling. Worth a few more runs I think.
If anybody is close enough to drop by with any bits they need doing, they're welcome to do so but I'm not doing any postal stuff.
