Carb Help

Post by ashah398 »

I cant get the port circled in the red flowing at all, I have tried just about everything to get it flowing wires, carb cleaner, soaking it, compressed air.

The only other thing i can think of is that it looks like its pressed in there so im thinking Ill throw it in the oven for a while at 350 or so and try to take that little pipe out and clean it then...

Any ideas???

Thanks.

ok so got that little port out, now i still cant get any flow out of it. Tried sticking the smallest needle i have through and there is something blocking it.

Should a needle go through it, or is there only a tiny hole in the middle that it flows from.

I just brought home an 1985 Aero 50 with the same style of carb.The bike starts easy but will not idle and I too can't seem to get flow thru that same tube.Is that the idle jet tube?Joe
