carb question for cb500

<< < (2/2)

Murf:
I see You say the choke on your carbs would naturally move to closed, that is what the correct orientation of the springs will do. So as said I think you have some wear in the system. I have posted a photo of the springs on my carbs and bushing where the rods go through the carbs, which should help.

Thanks Murf, looks like the springs are in right, so will now look at other parts for wear? seems to be aalot of pressure on the choke spring to keep them closed, thanks again all for your help.

Murf:
I think the answer is that there is a little plate on carb 1 that has a hole in it that a spring loaded ball bearing can click into and this holds the choke in the open position.

Murf:
Better photo of it

neat street:
Thanks again Murf, thats definatly ssolved the problem :-)
