Carburetors

I’ve been haphazardly cleaning the carburetors. Here are some pictures.

I had not intended to disassemble the vacuum chambers, but a few posts I read online suggested that getting carb cleaner (mostly acetone and MEK) on the rubber parts would destroy them, so I decided to check on the diaphragm. I’ve been spraying the cleaner all over the inside of the carb, and was worried some might’ve gotten to it. There’s still another diaphragm I need to check.

Carb Vacuum Chamber

So far, this carb seems okay.
