Do you have a problem with this marty? I'm not sure what "*" you are calling out.

Is this actually dangerous?

And are you sure on that this wouldnt work on a stock pipe? ie my 87 spree pipe

hmmm so you thinkin a carb cleanin in general or should I be gettin out the ol multimeter and checking the bystarter?
