Hey All,
Working on a 1976 CB360T with the 754A carbs. I'm following the service manual and have removed the carbs and completed the disassembly as far as the process goes in the manual (page 66). I have the gallon can of GUNK Carb Cleaner.
Draining the fuel. Yikes! With all that sediment I can't believe it ran at all. No wonder it didn't run well.
Before I go any further, I want to confirm a few things.
The float valve seat is really stuck in there. How hard do I pull on that to get it out? Or what other method should I try?
Second, do I break the carb down any further before putting it in the cleaner dip? The manual didn't say anything about parts like the idle screw or butterfly valves.
Finally, is that little plastic plug (yellow/tan circle on the output side of the carb) ok to go in the dip? Don't want to melt that thing.
Thanks
