Carburettor problems - Finally the solution! - A lesson for me and a long read

<< < (2/2)

philward:
Having just done a complete rebuild on my 500k2, I took Julie/Trig's advice and put all original jets, etc back in with Julie's upgraded o'ring kit. I had already bought a repo carb kit and comparing/mic'ing up the needles, I could see a significant difference. Had to fit the repo float valve into the original float valve seats though as originals were solid (since freed them off but weak springs). Only had it down the close so we'll have to see how the repo float valve perform on full road test when registration sorted.

Great post - thanks for sharing info to save members hasstle in the future
