[@RustyWrecks]

There's loads more to come, thank you for watching

[@itfc3]

nice one. what did you use to clean the carbs in the end..

[@jd6549]

Pete if you want to send them to me, I'll clean them ultrasonically and return them to you, no charge John

[@RustyWrecks]

Hi John, Thank you for the offer but I should hopefully be buying an ultrasonic cleaner within the next 6 weeks or so.

Carbs. Designed to both meter fuel into an engine, and take many hours of time away from your life in equal measures!! 😉

[@RustyWrecks]

LOL so so true

[@onemanhisdub1969]

Couldn't agree more!

Good morning Pete, hope you're well.
Quick question as your in carburettor mode....
The air shut off valves on the side of my carburettor are missing ' only just realised '..
What are the symptoms of these not being fitted?
My bike runs great at full throttle but terrible low to mid... It maybe the jets as I assumed they were correct.
Thanks David

[@RustyWrecks]

if you dont have the air diaphragm's you'll notice when you let off the throttle it will pop and bang like a misfire usually & they connect to the idle circuit and main jet which can affect performance, usually best to fit them lol, Ive got a problem with one of mine at the moment where it needs a new diaphragm but i dont have any spares at the moment.
