I would like to clean my carborater with gumout carb cleaner. The carb has electrical parts and the cleaner tells to stay away from electrical connections. Can I use the carb cleaner?

Hello,

What you are calling the Carb is actually called the Throttle Body in newer vehicles. You can clean it but I suggest getting Throttle Body cleaner. The electrical parts you see are the Fuel Injectors.
