Started cleaning the carbs today. Ugh! ![Face vomiting :face_vomiting: 🤮](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f92e.png)
But the motors have only been sitting 8 years!![Laugh :LOL: :LOL:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I'm following the manual step by step and it has me completely disassembling the carbs. I just got to the part where it says to remove the Welch plugs. Uhhh... nope. Those things are no longer available and have to be destroyed to be removed.
I'll just have to do what I can with carb cleaner and compressed air.
