Hello everyone,

So I tore my carbs apart and I was disgusted. One of the jet screws was busted , 2 of the carb screws were stripped and also one of the float needles was the wrong kind ..Also missing the small bent wire.
I've managed to make a carb synch tool . Here is a pic for those visual learners.
Enjoy

Carb Tool



Welding Tips


Wrong Float Needle..One on the right


Busted Jet Screw + Stock Needle


Carb Internals(for future reference i guess)


Starter Jet + Choke Slider


Emulsion Tube

STOP - That is NOT where the MIG tips and balance bottle tubing goes! That is the drain screw for your bowls, and has exactly nothing to do with synchronizing your carbs. On each of the rubber boots bolted to the head, into which the carbs are socketed, there is a M6 Phillips screw with a copper gasket. THAT is your balance port. Remove the screw, insert the MIG tip, attach the tubing. Replace the screws when finished, or else you'll have a truly nuclear air leak.

Ha ha , wow! I wasn't really sure about that so I just assumed that it goes in there. Thanks for shining some light on me and preventing me from doing something dumb.


P.S I removed the pic so it doesn't confuse anyone.

Is there a specific length that the clear tube going to the carbs has to be cut to? Also what type of oil do you use? And finally does the the tube going between the two bottles get completely submerged in the oil?

As long as it needs to be.

Some use ATF, some use 2-stroke oil. I used tap water and a quick thumb on the kill switch!

You betcha...

I tried to figure out how to post 2 small pictures which enlarge once you click on them under (Syncing ,wiki : all you need to know about carbs) ..but I failed. I completely forgot html code . I can give you the photobuket image code or html code if it helps. I hope ragedigital shines some light so we can figure this out.
