    I'm looking for the old formula Yamaha Carb Cleaner. Bottle looks
    like: http://www.randakks.com/Yamaha Carburetor Cleaner.jpg

    Part # ACC-CARBC-LE-QT or ACC-CARBC-LE-NR.

    The old stuff contained 2-Butoxyethanol and Xylene, the new stuff
    contains Glycol Ethers and Xylene.

    The old stuff is what I'm looking for. Said to mix 1:3 with
    gasoline. New stuff is diluted with water (no good).

    If anyone has a spare bottle or two or know where I could find it,
    would be forever in your debt.

    Shoot me an email if you have any or know of a source.

    Many thanks.

    If in the US look at the contents of Berrymans B12 that available at
    places like Walmart.

    I am in Canada and its not available here either. Basically its Zylene
    and Tylene and there are card cleaners available here with similar
    contents. Its not a throat body cleaner though.

    Try "lacquer thinner" from the paint department of a hardware store (or the
    paint & hardware department of your Wal-Mart equivalent). It's a witch's
    brew of organic solvents (perusing the ingredients list on the can is an
    education on what you don't want to inhale...).
