I am kind of a minimalist when it comes to cleaning carbs, haven't "soaked" one in years. I absolutely can't stand to be near the chemical carb dip, let alone have it in the shop. I usually de-gunk the outside with parts solvent and a brush, then spray out the passages with Berryman's B12 and blow them out with air. A quick squirt of B12 or Brakleen to the outside and they are good to go. On small engines I sometimes use a tip cleaner on passages if they are varnished up from sitting.
Let us know how the pine sol works.
