Hi, I did it now. Got tired and stupid, lost a drop of blue threadlock and it fell on my throttle barrel. Tried to clean it up but some seeped inside. There is a bit of binding. Is there something to dissolve it or do I have to take the carb apart?

Acetone should remove it, I would be very careful making sure every bit is out of any moving mechs in the carb. You might want to very carefully disassemble it and try using a soft tooth-brush with the acetone to get it cleaned properly.
I use gloves when using any kind of solvents & read precautions on handling..

Thanks Culverson for the info about the Acetone, it worked good.
I don't think I could tackle taking apart the carb at this time. Way to much going on. Are you supposed to lubricate the throttle barrel ever?
