March 9, 20206 yr just replaced the plastic idle carb screw with a DAB aftermarket one and i cant get the bike to idle. Ive had it screwed all the way in but makes no difference anyone had the same problem and have a solution?? not tried messing with the air screw yet as its a bugger to get to
March 10, 20206 yr Does the replacement have sufficient thread length? The oem blue thread compound often gums up the internal threads in the carb body, might want to chase hole with the correct tap...carefully to not allow debris into carb/engine.
March 10, 20206 yr Author Just compared the idle screws and and they have different thread lengths the aftermarket DAB on being shorter therefore with the spring on it wont screw far enough in to the carb so the option is to shorten the spring or go back to the original screw Thanks for the input
