    In this video, I show you how to adjust the accelerator pump timing on a FCR carburetor. The timing screw can advance and retard the pump shot. I adjust it until there is very little play in the system.

    You made my day awesome today. First YT video i opened. Answered my question instantly. THANK YOU SIR. Coz i just bought an old YZ250 ‘06. My very first dirtbike. My 11yo race on his 65cc ktm. 3 yrs now, I fast paced learn how to fix and maintain this lil ripper. I dont have a deep pocket, so we have to rely on diy.
    Now i got me a dirtbike so i dont have to watch him ride anymore.
    I tore down this yz already twice, to clean and learn the bike inside out. I noticed this o-ring wrap around that accl pump adjuster. And YOU sir just gave the answer. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE DETAILED EXPLANATIONS in regards to this part of the carb. Your lessons are priceless. Buying you a dozen of beerz still priceless. Have a great day.

    I was having crazy bad bogging issues on my 11 ktm 530. Managed to adjust the slop out of the ap using the adjustment screw. Had to look carefully at where the rod that presses the diaphragm sits in the black plastic arm. You can see the slop and find where it is no longer pressing the rod down at all. Absolutely rips now no bog from idle while riding. I am also using the thick o ring from the JD jet kit. Worked great for me without removing the carb from the bike. Only the seat and gas tank.

    Thank you! I had the o-ring on but I jumped to a QuickShot, JD kit and different jets, trying to get the bog worked out. After watching your video, turns out that screw was so far out, I was only getting 1/2 a shot of fuel. I adjusted that and got immediate results. The QS, JD and jets did absolutely nothing when I adjusted them. I have a Rekluse auto-clutch and the bike is idling low. I turned up the idle and that contributed to it being much snappier as well. I believe a Rekluse can magnify the bog problem. Thanks for taking time to post this.

    This is hands down the best video on getting the accelerator pump tweaked for maximum performance. Getting that “play” - “slop” is the key! And the Oring is a must. I would also recommend the shorter post diaphragm and smaller leak jet. My crf250r acts like it’s fuel injected.

    @HorsepowerHouse 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    This is a commonly overlooked thing on a modern 4-stroke mx bike with the Keihin FCR-MX Carb. Pretty much all common bike brands use a version of this carb if it's a 4-stroke high performance bike. Very easy thing to check and will minimize if not eliminate any off-idle hesitation or bog. Highly recommend ALL of you to do this inspection. (this as well as clean your dang carb every once in a while - and inspect your pilot jet for blockage - AND never never never use standard ethanol-based pump gas. (Because it can clog your pilot jet over time.)
