Maybe it was an anal mouse who took up residence and he chose that carb to be the bathroom.

+1 :smilie_happy:

It is very likely the noisy squirrels partying in the K&N room probably drove the poor mouse to hang out in the basement. It is sad. Hopefully I can take it apart and clean it enough without rebuild. Stupid squirrels##!@*

Hey what is the best stuff to clean out mouse hangouts and other stuff inside the carb? I noticed seafoam mentioned and B12 chemtool. I need something I can squirt in there that will clean the residue off this year.

you can boil the bowl with a little dishwasher soap. Should get most if not all of it.

I tried that on one it works. I noticed B12 chemtool works great I tore all the parts off the the bowl side and cleaned them. And poured some in the holes. Is there other places I should clean? Everything on bottom is clear.

BTW: Walmart carries a 1 gallon container of B12 chemtool "carb dip" and it includes a dipping tray with a handle inside.
