carb cleaning with lemon juice?

[duggyr]

read on the net that a good way to clean carb bodies is to drop them into a tub of boiling lemon juice; 50% lemon juice/50% water.
Anybody tried this?
what damage will it do to the rubber velocity stacks and the other rubber parts ie links between vaccums and choke seals?

The idea would be that you do this when they are in bits...not as a whole unit!
