coating on flaps

24 Sep 2009 07:54 - 24 Sep 2009 07:55

Does anyone know what the blueing like coating that is put on the flaps and choke slide links is? the cleaning agent i used took the coating off and they are trying to rust. Is there something else I can use to remedy this issue? This is on kehin carbs off a kawasaki.
Thanks,

WD-40=Water Displacement #40. Occasional use should work fine.

I'll clean them up and soak them good before assembly.
