Great Product for Cleaning Carbs!

Every now and then you find a product that works better than anything else. While working on my barn find I ran out of carb cleaner late one night and ran up to Advance Auto Parts and bought a can of BERKEBILE 2+2® GUM CUTTER
Stock No. B101, B2021, B2025, B20255

Concentrated cleaner cleans carburetor and metal parts
Safe for use with catalytic converters & sensors.

It was under 4 dollars a can. It was also in a league of its own. It immediatly removed all the old varnish. Freed up the slides. Spray it on and the old gas varnish turns to liquid.

Next time you get an old gummed up carb try this stuff...Russ

A few years ago we used to have some stuff called "Hog Wash" On the can there was a picture of a shapely woman in a pair of "Daisey Dukes" holding a Hog under her arm. this stuff was great too. Unfortunately the EPA made the company pull it and I believe they went out of business. I still have a few cans left and cherish it like Gold. I should try this stuff and see how it works. See if it's similar.
