Adjusting float height
Can this be done without removing the carbs?
Re: Adjusting float height
dependant on method. if you're setting them dry with the credit card method then def not. if you're using the external tube with fuel level then maybe but not easy plus you'd have to take the bowls off to adjust the tang/float height if they were out of spec...and the screws for the bowl arent easy to get to or are tight in some instances
all in all, its alot easier to do them off the bike

Re: Adjusting float height
Thanks Stig. I suppose I was really just asking if the bowls will come off with the carbs on. I put cap screws in there the last time I had them apart so they shouldn't be a problem.Stig wrote:dependant on method. if you're setting them dry with the credit card method then def not. if you're using the external tube with fuel level then maybe but not easy plus you'd have to take the bowls off to adjust the tang/float height if they were out of spec...and the screws for the bowl arent easy to get to or are tight in some instances

Im going to have them apart anyway soon so ill check float height then. But im going to check the fuel level before I remove them and maybe see how well that correlates with float height and was wondering if they could be tweeked with carbs on if necessary. So maybe they can. Thanks for the reply.
