I'm using my ultrasonic cleaner to clean the carburettor off my Beta Rev 3 trials bike. The carb is a Dellorto VHST26 if you are interested.
The cleaning fluid I use is Ultrasonic Carburettor Cleaning Fluid from Bestultrasonic.co.uk
(I have no affiliation with this business)
The ultrasonic cleaner I am using in this video is a Digital Pro+ 3ltr model.

Always a good idea to clean the outside of the carb with the tooth brush before adding to ultrasonic cleaner, that way you know how much dirt came off internally.

After manually cleaning about 100 motorsports carburetors, it's time for me to get one of these. And I don't actually care if I have to push buttons several times.

I've sent for one today with the push button controls, I sure hope I don't have to push the button for every number up and down but can just hold it and it will change and hoping even more if it's the same for the timer.

Unfortunately holding the button down doesn't work on mine. Not a big deal as I'm not using it every day.

You can use a pump wedge to displace the water in the bigger one

Great Video, I am going to have to get a ultrasonic cleaner and take on my 1989 Transalp carbs, a rare bike here in the US, I was going to install a jet kit but I think I will do Your secret power band trick, what should I put it around on a carbureted bike? Thanks!

I use 25 oz of muratic acid with 1.5 gals of water..you will see the carb boil..leave in for a minute...remove and rinse with water...repeat untill carb is clean...i also use pure toilet bowl cleaner..it removes rust, calcium..leave in for one minute or less...repeat as needed...you dont want to leave it too long" or the aluminum will turn dark...iv been useing this method since the 1970s..you could use ultrasonic after my method, for fine cleaning the circuits of the carb..

Hopefully an ultrasonic cleaner will do the job. You may need a few goes in the cleaner and to agitate the dirt with a brush between sessions in the cleaner. Also, using a good cleaning liquid is important for tougher gunk.

Top tip for small parts in the bath, use loose tea gauze balls

About to try cleaning a carb in my ultrasonic. Think Simple Green would be ok to put in as a solution or some kind of degreaser? Think I just might try some Dawn dish soap first just to try it out.
