Good luck. Where are you heading this time?
You need luck on that 401. I just got off it and it is mayhem approaching T.O from the west. I've never seen so many idiots on 1 road. Hell bent for leather , slam on the brakes, then repeat.
I can't answer that specifically , as a fisherman I always get asked that constantly and have learned over the years to never lead others to my best spots .
I'm wondering what the hell has happened to people's driving standards
Yes it was a nightmare heading back into Toronto , not just for me but for all the 401 sufferers . Like shuffling , clutch in , clutch out . I was worried about all my trout on ice , melting ice , great weather .
Come and live in Australia we have everything that wants to jump out in front of us and even worst in outback Aus with no fences to keep cattle, horse, kangaroos, emus, and up the top end even crocs crossing the roads, wild pigs, just to name a few even deer and in the suburbs people walking with ear plugs and mobile phones glued to their hands not paying attention and stepping on to the road without due care, why every 4x4 and trucks have the great Aussie invention called bull bars on the front to knock everything out of the way, we live in a very dangerous place and overseas travelers just don't understand when traveling our vast land and don't forget out famous drop bears, most dangerous creature of all.
Nigel,
What's wrong with a bit of heat proof paint cooking with the roast lol, the mount of times I dropped crank bearings out over the gas stove top burner and flip the cases over to drop the new bearings in as well cooked a few painted barrels in the oven a few times while the wife was there, haven't used the dish washer for parts cleaning yet as we only had a dish washer for 2 years the last one made too much noise, she kept on complaining she always did the washing up lol, nothing worst than winging and winding, so the new kitchen got a new dish washer, I tried to trade to old one in but no one wanted her lol.Nigel,
I also have to watch out for the wife when I bake my painted parts in the oven.She doesn’t get it!
I guess I am not alone
Soaking carbs in a full container of vinegar is the best, slowly eats away all the crude in those blocked holes without hurting the metal, I usually leave them soaking over night, but still got to use that thin wire for the pilot jet passage and compressed air if its fully blocked, also cleans all stains off the carb bodies and there is always vinegar in the kitchen pantry, well in my house anyway, I also have a container of vinegar up in the shed just for carbs.
I like to to time mine when she goes shopping, or is spending time with her mother.Nigel,

Maybe both methods combined would be best. Boiling agitates the carbs a lot, loosening off crud and freeing it up to float to the surface. If vinegar softens the crud, then a vinegar soak followed by a good boiling would sound ideal.
I'm guessing that jet holder was like that when you took the bowl off?
