B-12 is the only way to go. Beats every other carb cleaner hands down. I've been using it for years. Its base is mostly acetone and it will soften and swell rubber and plastic. Take those parts out.

Hi Foz,

For carb & diesel injector work, nothing I found beats Berryman B12. I buy any brand cheap brake cleaner for precleaning and save the B12 for the final clean up.

Lacquer thinner has many different formulations but most contain methanol which dissolves many plastics on contact.

I find B12 to be safer and more effective.
