[QUOTE="whenfoxforks-ruled, post: 1393330, member: 73147"] Did I mention the float valve is SUPPOSED to be replaced every year? I know, they are expensive, and do I know! And they are NOT a visual inspection part, a strong magnifier or microscope, or, just replace the stupid thing! A chinese carb would be better than no carb, but, getting jets and needles, and they are junk. A new or used mikuni the correct size is the ticket. Use a bike similar in motor and application sizes jetting specs for a baseline. Lean for a minute will not likely kill the motor, and too rich will just eat plugs. And the float valve specs, the tang on the float is just touching, not depressing the valve? Honda is the only oem that generally does not use mikunis', but they are usually easier to jet. The carbs with a drain on the bowl are priceless. Hook up a clear hose and hold it up, you can see the level inside the carb, better than xray vision. Vintage Bob [/QUOTE]
