Carb Cleaning

Anyone have a write up or link
Questions
    1. Any Plastic rubber parts to worry about in soaking?
 
   2. What do you use for cleaner? I have some in the garage somewhere 
but it
    could be too aggressive if there's any rubber parts in 
there.(per the manual)
    3. No mention of the starter 
circuit disassembly in the manual -is there a spring or ball in there?
    4. Looks like the boots stay with the 
engine on carb removal - is that right?
    5. I've asked this twice on
 the list and got zero responses - DO you reuse 
    the O Rings on 
the Pilot Screw? I've had #1 and #4 out before and they were
  
   hard as nails. If not where do ya get em without buying the whole 
assembly ?
    6.Any Tips/Tricks I should know?

    The 
bike runs OK but the starter circuit is plugged and I've been having to
 
    use starter fluid thru the winter
                       Thanks
