Following the carb rebuild guide it shows that the carb body gets dipped with the throttle plate and everything still attached. My question is the diagram shows their is a seal(s) for the shaft the plates are connected to so won't dipping the carb destroy the seal and whatever else rubber/plastic wasn't taken off?

On my twin carbs there is also a seal shown on the fiche however no one really has problem dipping with the throttle plates and shafts in place, it is the the other o rings and diaphrams that must come off before dipping. -
For some reason the seal around the throttle shaft does not seem to be affected, or at least not enough to affect operation.
Remove EVERYTHING else, but leave the throttle plates in place.

I've actually had one of these leak and had to replace it. Just dribbled a little fuel. It's Dan's deal now.Comment
