Hello Sparky THANKS ALOT ! for those two videos on the stripdown and cleaning of the carburetor. I have a question for you about the gaskets of the carb, once i replace them do i use joint scellant or just some grease to put back on the new ones ? Thanks again, Pablo

Hi glad you enjoyed the video. No sealant required for the gaskets on the carb just fit and screw it together.

what is the thing you put in at 11:40? and where do you put it? underneath the main jet or in the canal next to it? you didn't took this thing out when tearing the carburettor apart. my carburettor doesn't has this thing and i am concerned that my motorcycle tech missed it when he put it together last time.

Hi Sparky, great video from You. Very helpfoul. But question to You: in my CBR I have to much fuel in mixture,. Should I do something with main jet?

@BikeMates

5 жыл бұрын

Patryk Gadomski to much fuel in the mixture could be a number of problems, it could just need the mixture screw adjusting, maybe your air filter needs changing, could be the float level is wrong. The jets don’t normally need replacing but worth checking to see if they’re dirty. Hope this helps👍

@@BikeMates Can You please tell me what is purpose for AIR VENT TUBE(Service manual page 5-5)? It is for the opening vacum valve in tank? In my bike it is missing co that's why, I'm asking.

@BikeMates

Patryk Gadomski hi the tube which opens the fuel tap via vacuum comes from the engine block not the carb. The only air vent I can see is from the bottom of the tank which lets the tank breathe and wouldn’t matter if it was missing. Hope this helps

Hay man me again. Just a quick one is the float an adjustable one or a throw away and replace job? Also I bought the furl tap like I said I would and fitted it. But when I apply fuel the bike stutters. So this is why I'm thinking I've got to play about with the float level.

SA. oh and i did manage to fix the issue i had. it was a bad seal on the VC or is it CV or the pneumatic rubber thing. problem now is it's idling irregularly. if i rev it up it would stay at 4000 revs and slowly go down and down and down and stop and sometimes surprise me and die
