Zen & the Art of Carburetor Cleaning

Let's take a break from electrical diagnostics and dive into the lost art of CARBURETOR restoration!

This 1986 Kawasaki Vulcan 750 V-Twin has been sitting for a few years with a leaky gas petcock, and the carburetor jets are clogged up beyond belief...

I walk through the fine points of my method of restoring a motorcycle carburetor to like-new functional condition.

Have a great Labor Day weekend!
