I was looking for a cheap and easy solution to clean a multi-carb set-up without using harsh chemical. I've good luck in the past with untrasonic cleaners, but there aren't any big enough for price I'm willing to pay.
I have also had good results using a crock pot for parts cleaning. They're cheap and plentiful at thrift stores, but not big enough for multiple carbs. Then I started thinking about a turkey roaster. Many have a removable cooking pot, adjustable heat controller, and they're big enough to hold multiple carbs.
I searched the thrift stores with no luck. Then I checked out the local discount stores. I found this one on closeout at Bed, Bath, and Beyond.
I only used water. I'm worried about putting anything flammable in a hot pot with the heating element in close proximity. I turned the roaster down to a simmer to prevent warping the carbs.
Overall I am pleased with the results. Low cost, low effort, and minimal hazardous waste to dispose of.
