I used xylene to soak the carb, pump, lines and tank which softened all the brown gasoline tar goop then blew everything out with air and now have it all reassembled and running smoothly. Didn't try MMO because I had none on hand but did have xylene and it worked well with no damage to...

I ordered a complete new control box from Army Surplus Warehouse and installed it as the price for new was about double what a reostat would have cost including shipping and I got all new control parts, wiring ect. Seemed worth it to me to have all new. Works great now, 28.5 vdc and adjustable...
