carb dirty

[Accordie]

Can someone show me how to clean the carb correctly, using the carb spray? I usually let my uncle clean the carb but he's on holidays now and i remebered slightly where he rev's the engine up while spraying it directed into those holes or something in the carb? I think its gettin dirty cause its starting to stall again. Is that what u do? Can someone give me details on how to clean it properly?

acually i think on the can it says to have the engine off.... thats how i do it ... have the car off.... and the air cleaner cover thingy off ... spary it into the hole with that gold mesh screen over it...let the car sit for 5 min.... then start it

You do it while the car is running and when the car is off... when the car is off the cleaner is most effective because it has time to go to work on the stuck on gunk... after that you run the engine so the air flow sucks in the gunk... you rev the engine because the carb cleaner bogs the motor so you need to keep the revs up so you don't stall... it also could be to get more of the gunk off with more air flow.
