    just a little mod to the little red pipe from your carb cleaner
    no way i could explain this so we'll do some pictures, use a sharp knife
    if your lucky the point will fit the hole in the bottom of the float bowl tight enough not to leak at all, sometimes it will hold pressure in the little red tube
    watch out for blow back when you take it out
    now you've got some pressure to blow it clear and maybe not get carb cleaner in your face, don't look down the hole :eek:
    personally i use brake cleaner.....it's cheaper
