Yammer Dan Posted February 22, 2008 #2 Posted February 22, 2008 Wally World sell some spray cleaners that work pretty good. Gumout works good but is harsh don't let it sit on rubber or finished parts. It cleans great.

Black Owl Posted February 22, 2008 #4 Posted February 22, 2008 Lowell, Have you tried Yamaha Carb cleaner. It is an excellent cleaner mixed with gasoline. A bit pricey, but it will definately clean all the accumulated crub from the carbs.
Condor Posted February 22, 2008 #5 Posted February 22, 2008 used SEA FORM to clean the out side of the carb,this 93 vr need more than soup,409 used to work pretty good but i thank they have changed thir formly I use regualar carb cleaner, and then follow up with SeaFoam 'Deep Creep' on all the moving parts and the choke pistons. The whole process will make things work again. The carb cleaner I use is also flamable. Works great to locate any vacuum leaks in the intake..... Save the Sea Foam for the inside of the carbs.....
Redneck Posted February 22, 2008 #6 Posted February 22, 2008 B12 chem tool is the best there is use the spray bomb and the carbs will look like new. Don't let it sit on paint unless you don't want the paint on it.
Thom Posted February 23, 2008 #7 Posted February 23, 2008 you got to think cheap you can get it at the dollor store , Mean green , i use it to clean every thing , old nasty motors , boat motors , my hole bike and my wife uses it to wash my nasty shirts , also if you have a RV it removes the black streaks , if i need to get something realy bad i use orange hand cleaner and a old tooth brush i have something else that works very fast and easy put you will have to pm me or call because i can not put it out on the web or i'll show you at the meet and eat and no it is not illegal
bongobobny Posted February 23, 2008 #8 Posted February 23, 2008 You may also want to try "Greased Lightening" which is on the same lines as 409. Works pretty good for me...
