I didn't think people were still drilling jets. Was it drilled "properly " or hacked? Could've been searching for that for ever.

How do you check the transmission side level
@TepcoCycleRepair3 күн бұрын
There is a check bolt just below the water pump. With the bike level oil should just drop out, BUT I wouldn't use that method, it can strip easily. Just put 700cc in and run it. Change every 9-10hrs.

@@kylewo0 The absolute quickest way it to remove it, plug all the openings, pour a gallon of muriatic acid through the fill, cap it slosh it around, flush it out really good, dry it, and you're done. Or if you don't want to remove it, fill it with metal rescue, let it sit, drain it and you're good. Metal Rescue is good on rust but not sludge, muriatic acid will clean everything.

I hope you can answer a question for me. I have the yamaha EF2000 IS. another video I saw had the long bolts that secure the carburetor taken off. I did that and now I am having troubles determining how far the bolts are screwed in. When I put the nut on the bolt and start tighten the nut the bolt keeps turning and working its way in. What happens is that you don't get a good seal and the bolt continues to go in where the nut has very little to thread onto. I hope I explained this that you can understand. Thanks and good video.
@TepcoCycleRepair10 күн бұрын
Sounds like you'll need to measure the length you need sticking out, then lock tite the stud in. Let it dry then install the carb. The other way would be lock tite the nut to the stud, let that dry then use it like a bolt.
