OhioShee77 Posted September 9, 2012 Report Posted September 9, 2012 what is the small jet located in the float bowl? not the pilot or main! they are both in the main body this is screwed into a vertical passage in the bowl. what's it called and what's it purpose and function? Quote

Mattsv8 Posted September 9, 2012 Report Posted September 9, 2012 my bad it's a stock carb are u refering to the needle jet goes right where th needle is. or the air jet for the air going to the pilot Quote
OhioShee77 Posted September 9, 2012 Author Report Posted September 9, 2012 must be the air jet i'm guessing. and you say it gives air to the pilot jet? Quote
350skabarat Posted September 9, 2012 Report Posted September 9, 2012 If I remember correctly its a jet that works with the choke circuit. It should always bee on the left carb Quote
OhioShee77 Posted September 9, 2012 Author Report Posted September 9, 2012 so it's ONLY found on the left carb? i was cleaning the carbs lastnight and there wasn't a air jet in the bowl...just an open passage so i put one in and am about to go try it out...the bike wouldn't idle at all, had to have it 1/4 open to start and smoked alot so i was giving them a good cleaning when i found the bowl was missing the jet.

OhioShee77 Posted September 9, 2012 Author Report Posted September 9, 2012 the jet is in both bowls? i'll look and see if one of the other bowls i have dont have a spot for a jet Quote
