Dave,
It would be a good idea to disassemble the carb prior to cleaning! I
assumed that we were talking about cleaning the metal parts prior to a
rebuild.
I guess I was mistaken!
Apparently you can't get the stuff I was talking about anyway!
The old Hydroseal was not an acid, it was a base! It wasn't nasty at
all! It was called Hydroseal because it had about 2" of water on top.
The water kept the "good stuff" from evaporating.
It would swell o-rings to nearly 4 times their diameter.

One can't just throw a carburetor into a bucket of this stuff and leave
it for a day or two as one lister suggested, can we? Seems like this
"nasty stuff" would dissolve any non-metallic parts, gaskets, o-rings,
plastics pieces, etc., right?
