Re: Carburetor rebuild needed
The carbs are actually quite easy to refresh/rebuild. For the cost of a rebuild kit and a cheap ultrasonic cleaner you'll save yourself more than the cost of having them cleaned by a shop.
I purchased a 3 litre ultrasonic cleaner and used Simple Green: https://www.amazon.com/VEVOR-Commercial ... 9tdGY&th=1

I would contact David Woodburn if you don't want to do it yourself. I can't find his contact info, but Vech can tell you.
