$79.99 for a 2.5L cleaner with heat function from Harbor Freight.

When I get / own a garage, I'll get a bigger and better one.

Edit:
What's wrong with this picture? Hint: Its circled in red

 

Damn it Kuro,

Some inconsiderate bastard dropped the breather T into your lovely red circle. I blame it all on the parents!

 

Just to give you an idea on the results

Note the throttle springs and float bowls. I'm extremely pleased with the results so far. Now so long as my inattentiveness doesn't make me forget anything else during the reassembly, I'll try to get them in and get the bike running tomorrow.
Raining today But that's where my bike gets her namesake:

Rain

 

I'd hazard a guess that pictures won't do justice to your amazing efforts. I can see the springs are clean but it's the little holes and surface finish that matter and you'll never be able to get decent shots of them Kuro.
The proof will be in the running.
A very interesting project I have to say. Nice one. I love it when someone tries something new. Makes life so much more interesting.

So what was the problem with your red circled item? Don't tell me....... it expanded like an old wooly jumper hung up to dry.
C'mon, quit the suspense....

 

Yeah, the outer surfaces can't tell what it did on the inside. But there was a huge amount of gunk at the bottom of the cleaner. And the pilot jet on the #2 carb was clogged before I put the jets in the cleaner. When finished it was completely clear.

As for what's wrong... Heh, notice the carbs are assembled again and yet there's this joint sitting there I also had put the pilot screws back in, forgetting the o-rings / washers / springs

 

Nah, you simply did the remote Joint & O-Ring/Washer/spring Mod.

 

In a previous life I was a copier technician, working on machines made in Japan. First thing we would buy is a set of Japanese Screwdrivers. It sure makes a difference. These are probably 20 years old or so. Aymes Supply is where we'd get ours.

 

That sounds like a trick I've performed a few times on various items from toilet cisterns to tellys. The human brain is so easily distracted eh?
Never mind, you had practice at disassembly and reassembly twice. No worries.

Well at least you didn't have any of the parts disintegrate or end up a shape they weren't before.

Ido, thanks for the screw drive tips. It would seem that UK cross head screw drivers are fairly compatible with Jap heads. I've not had many problems undoing things unless they really are obviously rusted up.
The quality of the steel is sometimes questionable though.

So how's she running now Kuro?

 

Gotta get some time to put the wire harness in and then the carbs. Between work and home life (friggen union meeting tonight after dinner to vote on a strike that'll never happen), I've barely had time to fully reassemble the carbs

On another note... don't you just hate it when you finish putting something together and find 1 washer left over? Tore them apart again and rechecked everything, even referring to the microfiche. All the washers and spacers are already there.

Where the hell did this washer come from???

 

You just never know what the previous owner did, or didn't do. And by the way, micro fische's are not always the full story. If you really can't find where it went then keep it safe for the second, third or........ nah! it won't come to that many tries.
I know, life's a bitch and then you ride! (hopefully)
You'll get there mate. You know you will!
