Carb Jet sizes

<< < (2/2)

Nurse Julie:
I have gone from Allen screws to machine screws on my CB550 and Trig helicoiled every thread as many of them were stripped bare   ::) ::)

ogri211:
No prob I have done plenty of carbs but I will check the threads and helicoil them is needed and fortunately I happen to have a spare bank of carbs hopefully help the Alzheimers when im putting my original ones back together.

Greg65:
I had much fun and games with a Suzuki GS 1000 that had been podded and badly jetted as well as two of the four carbs damaged. In my general reading at most you will need is to go one jet larger for an exhaust mod. I found this web site invaluable for helping me set up my carbs and as its general advice I’m sure it will be useful.

Have fun as it requires lots of road testing.
