adjustment

Can't seem to find any info on "Hensim" engines, Honda Clone. This model is a 6.5 and I'd like to do a valve adjustment, anybody got the specs? Thanks, -ugmold

Can anyone tell me the settings for the bowl screw and the air screw so I can get the engine started and adjust from there? In short, if I turn each screw all the in how many turns do I back out each screw? I've got the engine to fire and even run for a few seconds. But the spark plug looks...

A bike recently purchased came with the newer style Tecumseh "Powersport" engine, of the 3.5 HP variety. The carb was very very sticky so I took it off the engine and tore it apart for cleaning. I immediately realized there is no low or high speed adjustment on the carb.......which seems kind...

Not sure if I remember this correctly and can't seem to find the thread. I need to adjust the governor. Do you push the throttle all the way open (with spring and shaft installed), loosen the governor screw on the block, push all the way open and retighten the governor screw on the block.:out...

I need some direction in adjusting the governor on a DB30. I know how to adjust the spring between the throttle linkage and the governor arm, but that's not my issue. I took some stuff apart to get things cleaned up a little bit and I think I may have messed something up. I removed the...

Got the Gote about ready for the maiden ride. How much slack should I set in the 2 chains ? I have everything level and square..and belt is adjusted where it should be..Thanks..JV..

Hello from Oklahoma. First off I am not a small engine mech. So bear with me please. I just bought a BAJA MB 165 for $40. The previous owner stated that it was running less than a year ago (YEA RIGHT!!!). The carburator was in a plastic jug, well part of it was. I finally had to replace...

So i got the Craftsman Tecumseh I picked up a couple of weeks ago running and got the idle adjustment just so. I was lightly reving it to get a good sense of the main adjustment and its ability to load up without stalling or stuttering and i swear i saw a small object fly out the breather and a...

So I have a gx160 on my bike and just got the clutch and chain today so threw it on and the idle is too high as soon as I took the choke off it reved up and wanted to take off can't seem to find the idle adjustment on this carb

Chain tensioners on these Doodle Dirt bikes. I been trying to figure out how to adjust my chain tension, it seems no matter I adjust it the chain doesn't get any tighter. I took a couple of links out, I am trying to put a 5 hp Briggs on the frame with a OldMiniBikes mounting plate. Of course with the...

I adjusted my valves, intake at .004 and exhaust at .003, it flies, but the idle is a little erattic, is it because of the adjustment?:thumbsup:

I have a Tecumseh 3.5 and I put on a new carb. I set the mixture at 1 1/4 and it will start right up but I can't keep it idling. I'm hooked up to the governor and it just dies. then you choke it and it starts on the first pull. Any ideas Thank Rick

I recently had an oil seal replaced on the ol' Cat. It has a 1966 4hp Briggs & Stratton. But now when I start her up the clutch engages and the bike lurches forward. I'm guessing the idle needs to be adjusted.:shrug: Which screw is the idle adjustor? Or is there another problem? Thank you in...

Almost done rebuilding the 5hp for the tiller. All new gaskets, seals, ARC rod, etc. But since I am keeping the governor, what is the procedure for adjusting the governor? I took the arm off the governor shaft coming out of the block during the rebuild and didn't mark where it was. Is there...

Hi guys, I need some help. I have a 6.5hp power sport which is a little hard to start, runs ok when warm but hesitates/stumbles when going from idle to acceleration so much so that if I go from idle to full open it just dies. There are no external means to adjust anything. Is there anything...

Official Sachs Bing Carb Adjustment Instructions

I'm thinking of starting a "I hate drum brakes" support group. Is it just me or are they a pain in the ass to get them to actually work without a gorilla strength grip? I'm talking about the very common 4" stamped zinc plated style that fits Manco wheels. I have an Arctic Cat with 6" Manco...

Could someone direct me to a DIY carb adjustment procedure for a Tecumseh diaphragm-type carb for the HS40 engine. I don't know which screw is which and the procedure for adjusting them. Please help! Thank you

Anyone know what the proper adjustment on the float arm is for a 22mm Mikuni VM? It is one of the ones from AGK. I downloaded the free mikuni tuning manual from their website but the part about float arm adjustment is confusing, i cant figure out which model is referring to mine. Look at the...
