Probably a daft question but can anyone tell me if I have to take out the jets and float in my Carbs when I get them ultra sonically cleaned at work.
Cheers :roll:

The Jets themselves will be fine but might clog or trap any debris, the Floats should deffo come out, if you're fastidious enough to need them shiny, Tcut and a toothbrush will do that, careful not to cave them in.

The carb bodies are probably better dismantled anyway so it's very little extra to remove the jets, they could go in the bath separately..

I usually completely dismantle mine before the ultra sonic bath.
