Carb setting

<< < (2/4) > >>

El__burro:
Marc, the bike start quite easily, not sure about the jets size, my guess is that they are stock.
Also not sure about the clip position on the needle (just figured out thanks to a Hackaweek video yesterday).
I have set all the floats to 26mm and the Air screw to 1 turn (from fully closed).
I need to set the clip on the needle right for all of them (any suggestion).
Unfortunately to make matters worse I have realised that exhaust 1/3 are not as hot as 2/4 (from a 4/1 system).

Before I remove the carbs I will have to look at this first.

Many thanks
El__burro

Could be electrical if 1and3 are cooler, they share a common set of points, so check the condition/settings of the points and wiring before ripping the carbs off, far easier to deal with than removing the carbs, which may not be the issue at all.

Hi... I though 1/3 are 2 different coils? Mine are 1/4 on same coil and 2/3 on same coil, can't recall if it is 1/4 on left or 1/4 on right and vice et versa...
Best,
Marc

El__burro:
yes, i will definitely check the points first.
I hate having to put these rubber back on the carbs/engine.
this could be the fix to my problem!!??
still need to check the clips on the needles.

thanks

Oops,, you're right about the coils, I misread the original post! Still a good idea to check the points, and the common live feed to the coils.
