CL77 Carb Cleaning

Post by RedlightG20 » Mon Sep 08, 2008 12:13 pm

Does anyone know of an online tutorial on how to clean the carbs on a CL77, preferably with pictures? I've never done carb work before and looking for some help to guide me through the process.

I don't know of anything online, but any good manual should explain it. To oversimplify it, just completely disassemble, soak in or spary all orfices with carb cleaner, including jets, and bolw through all orfices with compessed air. digital pics as your disassembling are priceless!

You can get, from Radio Shack (or other electronics/hobby shops), compressed air in an aerosol. Good high pressure and just perfect for blasting carbs through after shooting-up with carb cleaner. It has a 'dry' liquid propellant that flashes-off in an instant; I use it, in conjunction with a vacuum cleaner, for blasting the crap out of keyboards and PC cooling fans. Works a treat on carb orifices.
