I am rebuilding a carb for a 1953 International R-112 I'm getting back on the road after 35 years of sitting in the corn crib. I have decided to rebuild the carb as it is extremely hard to find a factory replacement Carter 735. The ONLY one I have found if it is even still available is $250 plus $100 core. So if mine doesn't core for some reason it would be $350.
Anyways, the inside has a ton of white crusty stuff that is extremely hard to get out. I have soaked it in diesel for weeks and got all that I can out with scraping and spraying pressured carb cleaner. Still a bunch crusted in the nooks and crannys that doesn't want to break loose.
Any suggestions? Are there specialty shops that have equipment to blast this crust out? Is there a different more potent product I should soak it in? I already have some ZEP Industrial Purple. Should I try that? The only other thing I have in mind at this point is to let it soak another week and spray another can of carb cleaner and put it back together. If it doesn't work then bite the bullet and buy one online somewhere.

The nice thing about our old iron friends is that they are usually quite consistent in their response, rather unlike some people I know who might change what they say due to the weather or other mitigating circumstances. But since t
