5. CLEANING AND INSPECTION
A. CLEANING
1. Soak all castings and metal parts,
except the dashpot assembly and
nozzle bars, in
a cleaning solution until all foreign
deposits are
loosened. If a commercial cleaning
solvent is not
available, lacquer thinner or denatured
alcohol
may be used. Place the parts to
be cleaned in a
metal basket suspended in the solution
and agitate.
Avoid lowering the basket into the
sediment which
collects in the bottom of the container.
After the
parts have soaked sufficiently,
they are to be
rinsed in hot water to remove all
traces of the
cleaning solution. Scrub away all
remaining for
eign matter with a stiff bristle
brush while rinsing
the parts and castings. Only inlet
end of the noz
zle bars should be immersed in the
cleaning
solvent. DO NOT place the circular
booster
venturi in the solution.
2. Parts and castings should be
thor
oughly dried with compressed air.
Compressed
air should also be directed through
all passages
in the castings and through the
jets and nozzle
bars.
CAUTION
Carburetor jets and passages should
never
be cleaned with a wire, a drill,
or similar
abrasive objects. This method of
cleaning
may distort the jets and passages
and greatly
