use the little tool to scrape up and down while the cleaner is inside but dont empty the carb cleaner stuff..

then leave for about 20 minutes and then hot water and empty the carb cleaner while u are doing that use the little tool to do the top of the peice where the sealance goes as u be suprise how dirty it is

use the carb cleaner on the rubber sealance too and then just wipe it with a old cloth and then put the sealance back on the peice

then put it back on the carb :)

Hope this helped :)
