I started using Mean Green several years ago after using Purple Power. The Mean Green is cheaper and it does a better job. You can also save on cleaner by placing parts in a zip lock bag with a small amount of cleaner and just use water in the ultrasonic tub.
I do that too, also makes clean-up a snap. Just pour out the tub, no need to even rinse. I also cut cleaners a bit, but only use distilled or deionized water - more power than hard tap water.
Great Video - When you first start up, fill up the water with the detergent and run the ultrasonic for 10mins to degas the detergent solution. Once this is done the ultrasonic will work more efficiently to clean you carburettor parts.
I'm a brewer. Professional, not a homebrew guy that thinks he knows what he's talking about. I honestly didnt consider this. But it makes sense. High vibrations, lots of cavitation... without messing with surface area of the air/oxygen exposed area. Thank you for mentioning this. Even if it's not accurate, I'm gonna let water sit for a while, then let one sample go untreated, one sample go for 10 mins in the ultrasonic, then run it through the company's DO (dissolved oxygen) meter. Even if it isnt true (I dont know), it will be great to experiment on and give legitimate results to myself and my motorcycle carb cleaning buddies.
Nice vid! I have used purple power, and I have used soapy water. The temp makes a huge difference for cleaning anything oily and greasy, but if you're doing anything made of zinc or aluminum, the higher temps will cause reactions that leading to an ugly surface finish. I noticed this when cleaning up some older cast alum parts.
The purple has a hydroxide component, similar to drano or lye. It reacts with aluminum which is the black compound and also forms hydrogen gas. That's most likely what made the bubbles. Be careful when trapping it with the lid.
Most water-based degreasers will damage aluminum, especially the more powerful ones. Zep's citrus degreaser is aluminum-safe, and Simple Green has an aircraft-specific cleaner if you can find it. This also applies to brass, zinc, copper, and other soft metals.
Nice video. I use simple green too. In fact yesterday i cleaned the engine bay on my 700 xc sp with it. Cleaning my sleds for summer storage. I love simple green. Thanks...
Saved me some headache I’ve got a jug of Purple Power sitting next to my new ultrasonic cleaner and was going to clean the carbs on my FZ1. Glad I found your video, back to the Autozone it goes.
You need a basket that hooks over the sides. Placing parts directly on the floor of the tank will shorten the life of the transducers. The heavier the parts the shorter the transducer life. Ask me how I know this to be true. :-) Thanks for taking the time to try the different cleaners. I use mine mostly for gun parts and records, I love it.
@@AKproXR I understand your position, I did the same thing with my 1st ultrasonic cleaner. I'm just sharing with you the fact that after mine stopped working I searched the web far and wide for a fix. What I found was a lot of people with different brands and sizes of cleaners, which didn't last very long (operational time not ownership time), who seemed to share one common trait, placing items directly on the floor of the cleaner. I noticed your basket doesn't have handles that allow it to be hung from the sides, forcing you to set it on the floor of the tub. You can easily make handles out of wire coat hangers that would allow you to hang the basket off the sides, prolonging the life of the machine. Bottom line, everything has limitations. Operate that thing outside of it's limits and it will fail. All the best.
Nice video on comparing the different cleaners and the effectiveness of the Ultra Sonic cleaning unit. The directions for Purple Power say to test on small area of item to be cleaned "especially on aluminum". It does also have the "Corrosive" symbol on the label as well. Oh well, live and learn. The carb is still usable I'm sure and I'd think extremely clean. Personally I think the carburetors should have been disassembled more. Float valve removed, adjustment screws, rubber vacuum plugs. Basically anything and everything that could be taken off should be. That way anything that comes lose, can be rinsed away easily and not trapped. Still a good video for sure, thanks for posting.
Yeah, there's tons of reports online of purple power damaging aluminum. It's also quite bad for human and environmental health. While simple green is safe.
In the 80's our shop owner stuck a 1970's Mazda carb in our parts tank & hit start. He forgot all about it & the next day we came in he found that carb still soaking. "Man it looks like brand new in/out!" Happy boss! Well until he went to re-assemble it and every screw hole stripped out because the threads turned to white powder..lmao Took almost 3 months to get that brand new carb back then, special order from Japan $809. So beware of corrosive labelled products.
Back label on the Mean Green recommends not using it on aluminum. Almost went and bought some. Guess I'll stick with Dawn and Simple Green mix for aluminum. Purple Power works great on steel parts, but may etch off plating/paint if left in too long.
My understanding is that you don't want to put your hands in the water while the ultrasonic is on. It can have some pretty nasty effects. Put the parts in first, then turn it on.
Glad i watched this first! I usually use simple or mean green but 1 gal of simple green was $15 and a big jug, 2.5gal i believe, of purple power was only $20 so figured I'd git it a shot.
The problem is many cleaners stain or darken Aluminum parts, so far the best product I've used is the industrial cleaner from Harbor Freight which cleans great & doesn't effect the color of the Aluminum parts.
I just used a dish soap pod the other day on a oily valve cover. Did it as a last resort but it worked pretty good....the heat i think is the most important part. If its not hot or hot enough to begin with, it wont work as well...ultrasonic cleaners work ok but its not perfect by any means.
When seen you had purple power and made no comments prior to using it I knew exactly what was going to happen.. it can be used to clean aluminum for 15 minute spurts but not with sonic cleaner its like turbo charging the stuff.. makes everything dull gray .. you can make all 3 carbs look identical blast them with soda like you are snadblasting but with soda it will not hurt anything and any residue left over goes away with water.. if it was a timing cover or intake you can bead blast it but you have to make sure you get every microscopic material or it will get into engine.. hence do not do anything that can trap material you cannot clean out .. over head cam heads with oil galleys .. definite no no for bead blasting
I've noticed that with Purple Power some carbs will react to it like that where they get really dark in color but I've had some carbs come out so clean they look brand new. It says on the back of the bottle to test some of the PP on the metal before using but in the end I switched to Simple Green reason being is it doesn't seem to react with aluminum and it's biodegradable unlike mean green.
Purple power works great you simply did not water it down enough .. your mix ratio was to high I clean aluminum all the time in 100% straight purple power but only leave it submerged for 30 minutes tops but you also gotta realize using it with hot temps increses its strength by a large amount coupled with sonic cleaning and its even more effective so you would need to water it down. This would also mean its cheaper to use . if you a aluminum cylinder head overnight in 100% purple power you might need to scrap it.
@@supposedlycollectable4220 the detergent can cause skin irritation and the ultrasonic action can cause mild discomfort; that’s it as far as risk is concerned.
A good way to get in the ports is with a tube connected to a suction tube like for cows and immerse it in the solution and push it in the small pets to get all the air out the passage ways. Great video would like to see Simple Green Aircraft against them..
Be careful putting your hands in the machine when it is running. The ultrasonic waves will damage your connective tissue and nerves in your hands after repeated exposure.
I WAS TOLD IF THERE IS BRASS PARTS ALONG WITH THE ALUMINUM IT WILL TURN THE ALUMINUM BLACK, DID THIS TO AN AFB CARB WITH BRASS SEATS AND TURNED IT BLACK. CALLED A GUY ABOUT IT, HE WAS RIGHT!
I have /am using All those same Degreasers .. cleaning my engine parts. Also Bought a Heated Ultrasonic Gizmo to use. I promptly sent it back for a Refund It didn't do enough to justify it's Price.. Don't believe what Utube videos claim :-)
well if you read the safety sheet and the label of purple power you'd know it shouldn't be used on aluminum the way you used it , it has acid in it it's a very mild acid but still able to tarnish aluminum especially when left on

Question now is, how to remove the hard grey coating the purple power left on the body? I have had that problem and it has left a super hard coating on the carb body. I had run out of the proper cleaner and tried the purple power, big mistake.
@@AKproXR Same with one I did. It pretty much anodized the carb body because of the combination of the sonic machine temperature making the corrosiveness of purple power stronger. Have cleaned many carbs in the sonic but never again purple power.
The ultrasonic won't damage the floats. If you're using a caustic chemical in the ultrasonic cleaner (like Chem-dip) then keep the floats away from it. If you're using something like Simple Green or PineSol, you'll be fine.
Pine sol is the shit when dealing with clogged jets. But spray everything down with brake clean and finish it off with pb blaster or WD-40 afterwards to prevent seizing
@@AKproXR I just plan on using the proper cleaner for the proper material. Stainless suppressors will be fine in purple power, aluminum will have to use a safer solvent. If you are familiar with "The Dip" a mixture of vinegar and peroxide, it too isnt safe for aluminum or brass.

@@AKproXR No debate at all, just that by reading the label, you would have had a good warning as to what affect it would have, best that you did use junk parts. But I don't think the cleaner should be critiqued for doing exactly what the label said it would.

Intensity of ultrasonic agitation waves within single-emitter cleaning tanks is wildly variable. So naturally, short-term cleaning within those tanks is also extremely dependent on where within those tanks users place objects to be cleaned compared to the ultrasonic emitter's location. For that reason, you, or anyone intending to replicate such comparisons, should try your damnest to hold all other factors constant other than compared cleaning solution. Not only start with the same temperature water (use a thermometer) but also photograph locations of your first batch of nearly identical parts being cleaned and when you load test parts for each following comparison test, duplicate their original orientation and position within the tank so you are not unintentionally creating some huge advantage for one test as related to some most conspicuously difficult to clean areas compared against other tested products. Nice first effort, but be as careful as you can to KEEP ALL FACTORS EQUAL EXCEPT YOUR SINGLE INTENDED TEST VARIABLE, which in this case was the cleaning product and hopefully dilution factor. If you are going to discuss cost per cleaning, diluting one product to 20% (1:5 ratio), do the same for all others unless you also apply each multiplier when computing cost per actual cleaner volume. On balance, this was an interesting demonstration.

Purple power etches the aluminum
Preheat your water. Out of tap or on the stove👍
Mean Green is slightly alkaline/caustic. Like acid (vinegar), it eats metal. So you get a shine.

SG will actually etch aluminum if left on too long. No issue when rinsing right away but it was even be used to prep alu for paint so be careful.
Be sure to RINSE the parts immediately after using Simple Green. It is hard on aluminum and should be diluted for use when used on aluminum
