Title: Carb rebuild, jet questions
Post by SoC on 11/09/23 at 17:03:09

I know there is a tutorial on carb rebuilds and jet selection/replacement, but for the life of me I cannot locate it with the search function. Any advice or a link would be appreciated. I have a a Jet set from Lancer, trying to figure what if any changes to make.

It is just a general rebuild, so thinking to just go with stock, but was hoping to get some info on what results to expect with any changes. Carbs are not my strong point, this is actually first time I have ever attempted a rebuild. To make matters worse it was n my bench for 6 months disassembled waiting for me to put it back together, so I have misplaced in my memory much about taking it apart and am relying on a combination factory service manual and a Clymers.

Thanks

My "go to" for elevations up to 3,000 feet or so is a #150 main, #50 pilot, and 3 washers on the needle.

Dave and Versy, Thanks for the responses, I think I will go with the recommendations from Dave for starters. I am trying to get the RYCA bike I got last year running. Work started on it but I got side tracked with boating stuff and construction at my house with the summer weather. My wife really loves sailing and the boat, so in her mind it takes priority over my bikes.

I have a second carb in need of rebuild also, so I am trying to advance up the learning curve with this sort of thing.
