July 20, 200917 yr the idle seems a little low on my 2002 sherco, any way of adjusting something to make it tick over at a slightly higher RPM?
July 20, 200917 yr If you look at the carb there should be a little screw with a spring behind it turn the screw clockwise till you recieve desired tick over not very good at explaining things hope this helps
July 20, 200917 yr Chances are you will need to adjust the pilot screw also to get the mixture right. I don't know what type of carb you have so can't say which way to turn it - most enrich by turning in but Dellorto go the other way from memory. If you Google carb adjustment you will find how to get the balance between the mixture and throttle stop screws but tune from rich to weak. Amal used to do a good leaflet on this - I wonder if anyone has scanned it?
July 21, 200917 yr i had a 125 sherco 2005 and the mixture screw went the opposite way!! screw in for making it weaker and out for richer. dont know if yours is the same carb if the bike is not running clear reset the mixture screw by screwing all the way in and then take it out 1 and a half to 2 turns ( depending on wear the bike runs best ) Then set tick over up ,as changing the mixture also affects tick over slightly. also make sure the bike is hot when setting it up.
