July 6, 200818 yr Hi a mate of mine has a Sherco 02 290 with a Dellorto PHBL 26 carb attached - I assume this is standard. The bike stalls quite often and I think its out of tune. So does anyone have any links to the standard settings e.g what tang heights/needle notches should be? Any help setting up this carb would be appreciated.

First step is to clean it thououghly, jets should be somewhere between 33-36 on the pilot and 118-122 on the main, with needle in 3rd groove as I recall! Tangs level!

July 7, 200818 yr Set float level at 18.5 and uk settings are 33 and 118. Claen through and pay attention to the banjo filter.
July 7, 200818 yr Author Thanks thats a good place to start. Where is the 18.5 measured from? Edited July 7, 200818 yr by Beta Bodger
July 8, 200818 yr Author Thanks Dabster. I found this on the site which may be of use for some http://www.shercousa.com/?action=10 However, could not find an image of where this 18.5 is measured from???????
July 8, 200818 yr from memory up from bowl machined face of main body, top fun did a u shaped ally thing for it have a look on there as well?
January 12, 200917 yr This may interest you or others looking for the elusive measurement answer. http://www.ducatimeccanica.com/dellorto_gu...llorto_3_2.html

April 13, 201115 yr Wrong ignore this go to the sherco site Hmm.... Just stripped my PHBL 26BS to clean it for the 1st time and see what pilot jet is fitted - 30. I've ordered a 33 and I'm pondering about this here float height. It's running fine at the moment, except for some stalling issues, so if I can't find where on the tang to take the measurement I'll give in. I'm running a 122 main by the way. The tang itself is nowhere near parallel. Aha, found this - very useful https://www.splatshop.co.uk/2010-2011-sherco-preparation Peter
