Carb Cleaning Tools?

Post by Aeromatics »

Anyone know of a cheap air compressor that will be good enough to clean out a 50 cc carb? I look on ebay, and see the ones that plug into your lighter port, but now sure if thats strong enuff. What do you guys use?

I ordered a small set of wire tools that works well, but only lasts a week or 2, then i gotta clean it agian. Or does this sound like i need a new carby?

No, it sounds like you need a fuel filter and you need to clean out the tank and the fuel lines.

I agree with the inline filter.

Also you should replace your fuel lines as the fall apart inside the hose with today's fuel. I prefer clear lines then you can see what is going on inside the hose.

Oh and this is a Honda filter used on the Aero 80 and 125 scooters.

FILTER, FUEL 16910-GB2-900 $8.04

You will have no flow problems with this filter.
