reghusky Posted 11 hours ago Report Share Posted 11 hours ago Hello, I wonder if anyone can help please? My son has a rev 3 125 2006 with the dellorto VHST 26 carb. I have taken the carb out to clean it and check jets, it has a threaded hole here which leads straight into the carb bore, should this be blanked off? I can't believe it's right to let unfiltered air straight into the engine?! Also does anyone know the standard jets/needle position for the dellorto? Thank you.

konrad Posted 9 hours ago Report Share Posted 9 hours ago I'm used to the PHBL, but your VHST looks like this photo: https://www.speed-parts.nl/carburateur-dellorto-vhst-26-mm-bd-flat-slide.html The casting probably was made that way so it could have mixture and idle screws on either side. You could test with compressed air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reghusky Posted 8 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 8 hours ago Yes, I agree it looks like the casting is made for both. It definitely goes from outside to inside, I thought the unused side would be blocked or capped. I wondered if anyone had the 125 and could confirm or deny?

If it was like that from Day-1, the engine would have had a massive air leak and never worked properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
