Anyone have any experience with ultrasonic cleaners? I've been looking around at them and thought they'd be great for cleaning old carbs, fuel injectors, heads and other labor intensive cleaning tasks. Found one on ebay for a fair price $300 (shipped to my door), it's 6.5L (1.7 Gallon) with a 42Khz frequency. ULTRASONIC CLEANER I've heard that they work really well on carbs because you don't have to take them apart to clean them just dunk 'em in turn it on and come back in 20mins and it's done inside and out, but what about carbon in exaust ports?
Thanks

Those cheap ones are fine if you're cleaning your man rings and necklaces. If you want to actually clean a carb or anything bigger then a watch, you'll need a larger one

I see 2.6L ones for ~$100, ebay item 260279518512
Do you dunk the whole carb in the tank?
Let us know how it works out.
