Default Cleaning carbs should I cange oil before or after?
So I'm paying someone to clean and sync my carbs. I plan on changing my oil but I'm not sure if I should do it before or after the carb cleaning.

Well the engine should be hot when the oil is changed so more oil comes out and flows easier, so i guess after?

I can run the bike before or after. I was told that you should change your oil when you clean your carbs just not sure before or after.
