The carb cleaner "magic fix"

Hey guys,
I tried the carb cleaner today. I've sprayed it into the vacuum line, and into the intake elbow once i removed my air filter. I did notice quite a nice difference (perhaps because I also adjusted my TPS while i was at it)... the engine is noticeably alot smoother... and starts up much quicker (recent rebuild). Thought I'd let everyone know of my success with the carb cleaner, as I'm sure most of you are skeptical, and are waiting for some guinea pigs to try it out first

Have a good night, and thanks to whoever posted it (bambam7 was it?).

Yep, worked very well for me, and a few others.. I think it's a pretty dang good idea if I say so myself!! Really smoothed my engine out.
Just HAVE TO MAKE SURE that your carb cleaner contains lubricants...if it doesn't, I wouldn't recomend it.
