Confusion on Carb Cleaner

[Sailorguy1]

After reading many of the e-mails and learning a lot I have a question.

Several members advocate using a "dip" carb cleaner, like Berryman's, which I have used in the past on car and motorcycle carbs. It does work great

But the Tohatsu repair manual says not to do this and just used aerosol spray and compressed air.

Would the dip cleaner wreck a tohatsu carb body?

I'm working on an M15D2 Two Stroke

Dip is the way to go.

Tohatsu does not recommend dip as it can disolve the protective coating on the carburetor if you leave it in the dip too long. Three hours is the limit...

I'll give it a try and see how it goes.

Thanks for all the info you share!!!!!!!!!
