I've cleaned and rebuilt hundreds of carbs in my lifetime, and I've seen some pretty strange stuff in some of them - but does anyone have any idea what this white, flaky stuff could be? All 4 carbs were loaded with it, and the rubber was mostly disintigrated. The tips of the float needle valves were gone, and the air cut-off valves were like a very thin mesh.
I bought these carbs for $20 to experiment with, and have no idea whatsoever what their history is. I'm thinking some kind of bad fuel treatment, but who knows. Ideas? Suggestions?
