Carburetor Cleaner - 13 oz

Signs of Wear & Troubleshooting

• There are a number of warning signs that may indicate that your carburetor is in need of cleaning:
• Vehicle starts then dies within a few seconds
• Hesitation or stalling during acceleration
• Fuel spitting out through carburetor throat
• Vehicle backfires periodically with black exhaust smoke
• Fuel leakage when engine is running

Good Maintenance Practices

• Remove air cleaner and run engine at medium idle (about 750 RPM) when applying product.
• Spray product into carburetor venturi (throat in carburetor's air passage) until empty, striking automatic choke plate, main throttle plate, and shafts. This will result in a reduction to 400-500 RPM, this is normal.
• Turn off ignition and let the engine stand for 5-10 minutes.
• Restart engine, opening and closing throttle rapidly, for 2 minutes.
• Replace air cleaner.
• On older vehicles, a smooth-running carburetor is paramount in maintaining the right fuel-air mixture to keep your vehicle functioning properly. Regular inspection and cleaning is a great way to ensure this.
• Time between cleanings can vary depending on individual driving habits, but should be done about every time the oil is changed.
• The addition of fuel additives can help to keep the fuel system clean and the carburetor flowing effectively.
• Change your fuel filter on a regular basis to prevent debris from entering the carburetor.
