just had a few problems my self. If it ain`t big trouble you should go for carb cleaner fuel addittive, otherwise just as has been said before just use the carb cleaner spray it only take about 30 mins if inexperienced as i am |

Bit of a late post but carb cleaner is virtually the same stuff as brake cleaner. Its a de-greasing agent basically. I would use the brake cleaner you have lying around.
