I know vinegar works really well in stinky washer's and dish washer's. Makes them like new.

Even my carburetor serves as an example to others. It looks great. I can't wait to run it.

Appears that lemon & lime juice are real close, & vinegar just a little weaker(if not diluted with water. some are sold 7% by volume. which means they are cut with water) here's a chart I found.

FWIW You might find it easier and cheeper in the long run to just buy Citric Acid in bulk powder form and mix your own.
this form will not have suger in it like most juces and will keep once mixed without going rotten.
