October 12, 20205 yr Lads I need help. I have a gas gas dirt bike with a Phbl 26bs carbarator in my bike and my bike has been left sitting for 2 years and I tried to start it and I wouldn’t I cleaned the carbarator and changed the gas and changed a few small pieces and now the bike starts with only choke and if won’t idle without the choke on and sometimes when I give it gas it just cuts out and also it’s blowing a lot of smoke help would be greatly appreciated
October 12, 20205 yr You need a diagram of the carb with all the pieces. Take it back apart and see if everything is there. I bet you dropped the needle jet.
October 14, 20205 yr Author I did just that and I didn’t realize that the main jet is in the float bowl nut and I lost the floar bowl nut and ordered a new one and put the new one in not knowing that the main jet is screwed into it so the whole time I have been missing the main jet I have ordered one size 118 is that an okay size and also could I have done any damage by running it without the main jet Edited October 15, 20205 yr by Niall
October 14, 20205 yr I have no idea what bike you have. The jet depends on the bike. Running witjout the main should not have harmed it.
October 15, 20205 yr 118 is close. you need someone who knows about carbs to set it up for you, really you do.
