As I have mentioned, i have raced and tuned off road motorcycles for many years. I double checked how well Acetone would clean the carb if one ounce was mixed with a gallon of gas. Both 2k Honda gens had sat for months without being run. Both were hard to start on the old gas and ran rough. I topped them both off with fresh regular gas and 1 oz of Acetone per 1 gallon of gas.. I ran them for about an hour and they ran better but not good. Shut them down for the night. After the Acetone present in the carb for 16 hours they both started this morning on the 1st pull and ran immediately without the choke (60 degrees outside) as they should, plus they ran smooth. Acetone probably had evaporated from the gas by this morning but before it did it dissolved the lacquer in the carb. No additional Acetone should be added after they start running good!
