I would take off anything you want... bowls, floats, whatever. You naturally need to be careful to not bend the floats if you take off the bowls. If you're taking the carbs completely apart, go ahead and soak all the pieces.
A nice thing about Pine-Sol is that you can use an open container and not get an offensive odor... just a clean smell.
It'll be a good idea to look at he stuff occasionally to be sure things aren't getting discolored or whatever... I've not had any issue with PineSol even after a couple of days soaking, but recommend that you check them anyway. I've soaked in some vinegar solution and although it will also clean them, I got some weird surface discoloration and texture... so I don't recommend vinegar.
When you get to the jets, you might want to get a guitar string for the small holes... I think it's an E string that you would need (whichever is the small one).
If you haven't done carbs before, I suggest that you take your time and lots of pictures... in order of disassembly... to make it easier to put them back together.
It's all easy, you just have to pay attention to details sometimes.
Others might have different suggestions... chime in guys.
