PAUL ANNIS asked 1 year ago
I’ve had good success with B-60 cleaning up gummed up motorcycle carbs after the bike has sat up for a long time.  But, I can tell the jets in the carb are still slightly gummed up.  I use as directed (1oz per gallon).  Can I use a higher concentration (like 3oz per gallon) to speed the cleaning and get a deeper cleaning?  Can B-60 in higher concentration harm rubber components in the carb?  I’m trying to avoid removing the carb, dismantling, and cleaning.  Great product and I’m hoping it can do more.  Thanks.

Berryman B-60 High-Mileage FUEL SYSTEM REJUVENATOR (part #7516) is EPA-approved for on-road use at a maximum concentration of 1 fl/gal of gasoline. However, for off-road use, you can safely double the concentration. If you’re going to quickly run the tank out, you can also safely add 2 fl oz/gal of Berryman B-12 CHEMTOOL FUEL INJECTOR CLEANER (part #0116) at the same time. (Both of these products are compatible with all materials of construction in all modern fuel systems at these concentrations; we just recommend running the product out right away out of an abundance of caution.)

For best results after running out the entirety of the combination of products, add 1 fl oz/gal of 0116 if the motorcycle will be put into regular use or add 1 fl oz/gal of 7516 if the bike will only be used sporadically such that the gasoline will last more than about 60 days. Then fill the tank with fresh gasoline. Run the engine briefly to ensure the fresh mix has made it through the entire fuel system.
