Carb cleaner, short for carburetor cleaner, is a specialized solvent designed to remove carbon deposits, dirt, and grime from carburetors and fuel injectors. It typically contains potent chemicals like acetone, toluene, or other hydrocarbons that dissolve sticky residues and improve engine performance. Used primarily in automotive maintenance, carb cleaner helps restore the efficiency of fuel systems and ensures proper engine operation. It is important to use it in a well-ventilated area and follow safety precautions due to its flammable and toxic nature.
