OMG MY EYES!!!

The petcock is stuck and has to be cleaned. This whole carb was so gummed up I had to spray it down and use a mini lever to move the internals.

This stuff cleans the carbs well, but tastes bad and burns eyeballs. 

Don't forget the PPE. Between aerosol carb cleaner and the bucket of yuck, my eyes burn and my tongue is stingy.

Charging the new battery for the GL1100 today, and trying to make headway with the mystery problem with the XL125.

I stink.

  1. I've seen PineSol work miracles...not that it would be any better in your eyes. Could be worth a try.

  2. I'll have to try that out. Of course to be all scientific about it I'll mace myself with it too.

  3. A.) The fumes really got to you because the GL 1100's been gone for a while.

    B.) I've seen you mace yourself before. It was funny shit.
