    Harley X90 Air/Fuel mixture Screw Washer Question...

    I am a proud new owner of a 1974 Harley Davidson X90.. After cleaning the carb I can get it to run with the Choke pulled up but it dies as soon as soon as I close the choke. The mixture screw does not have a little rubber O ring and small washer on the end... I know not all carbs do but the...

    High elevation mixture

    Hello everyone, I live at sea level and have .016 jet for the idle circuit of my carb. The bike runs great at my house but when I go camping at 5,000-6,000 feet above sea level, the bike idles terrible. Would I put a bigger jet (.018 or .020) or smaller jet to correct my idle. I do not have a...

    what fuel or fuel mixture do you use?

    I'm building an Azusa minibike with a Powerfist 208cc, which I call the Canadian Predator clone. I'm leaving the governor in, but using the longer hotter plug for more compression, size 34 carb jet, heavy duty valve springs and have a Gokartsusa exhaust pipe and muffler. I'm planning on...

    Is this stock or a mixture of bikes?

    Stripped mixture screw

    Hi all. This is my first post here, so thanks for having me. I bought a doodlebug off Craigslist for $30. I thought it would be a nice project for me and my son. I noticed the mixture screw on the side of the carb is stripped out. Like a lot of other folks here, the motor will not run with...

    Ohlsson and Rice fuel-oil mixture

    I just got my NOS Ohlsson and Rice engine and the instructions say to mix SAE 30 oil with the gas, my question is, wouldn't 2 stroke oil be better than SAE 30 oil? And if SAE 30 would that be detergent or non-detergent?

    Dancing A/F Mixture Screw 5.5 OHV

    On my Tecumseh 5.5 OHV motor, the air/fuel mixture screw on the carb moves quite easily and frequently from the {{{ViBrAtIoNs}}} of the running motor. I thought that maybe it had a "spring-loaded" screw that would keep tension on the screw but there is no spring -and- the small engine parts...

    Who has used an air fuel mixture guage on a Mikuni?

    I have read the Mikuni manual twice. I would like to know who has used an air/fuel mixture guage to get a reading from the exhaust gases. And how it may have worked for you? Did you spend $50.00 or $200+ to achieve perfect mixture ratios, or did you just wing it? TT :thumbsup:

    Fuel mixture for a Briggs/Stratton

    I just purchased a '47 Doodlebug with a Briggs and Stratton engine. Do you need to mix the oil/gas or does it run on just gas? Thanks
