    Just pulled the carb off the YSR project and it is BAD. Anything other than carb cleaner that I can soak it in to help break down all the build up?

    Any tips on cleaning the jets?

    My lil CRF100 has been running like garbage for two years, just about positive the jet is clogged.

    the cleaner costs more than a new jet.....

    It's probably the pilot that's plugged/dirty, smallest hole, first to clog. On that bike the pilot's so tiny I wouldn't even bother trying to clean it, just put in a new one.

    I agree!!! I did that about 4 years ago, and I still have dry eye symptoms caused by carb cleaner. And I was wearing glasses too! :down:
