Denatured alchohol will be the most effective/safest way of cleaning your carb.

I am having a problem with keeping my carb from moving. It's a brand new engine, and the lock fits in perfectly, but I can easily turn the carb. Is anyone else having this problem, or does anyone have any ideas?

What is happening is they are bottoming out before they squeez the carb base.
