CB750 / Adjusting air screws makes no difference
« on: March 24, 2010, 09:31:00 PM »
Hi all,

Now the CB750 is back on the road, I'm trying to fine tune it. After a good ride out to get it nicely warmed up, I attempted to adjust the air/fuel mixture screws on the carbs. Currently their all 3/4 of a turn out, but adjusting them is making no difference at all!. My understanding is I need to adjust them until the engine idle speed increases then turn back the idle speed with the main adjuster.

Any ideas why adjusting the mixture screws is making no difference?

Best regards,

Paul

One of the members, Yoshi823, told me about the UK SOHC site (been posting to the US SOHC4.net) so glad to come back over to this side of the pond and post here! :).

Been into bikes since my earlier teens (I'm 36 now), mostly the restoration side.

Had more bikes than I can remember, but mostly into Italian exotica (namely Ducati's, I'll start dodging the rotten tomato's!).

Restored a few Honda's, love there relative simplicity and parts availability. Working on a 70's Honda and a 70's Brit is like working in two different time zones! :).

Currently got a "bitsa", but primarily CB750K2 based restoration that I've sympathetically turned into a Carpy'esc "Cafe Racer" (no offence Carpy!, I'll never match your skills!).

Looking forward to chatting with you all on the forum!

Best regards,

Paul
