fastbanshee8 Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 Either the float height is set too high, or the needle, and seat above the float is dirty, or needs replaced. If you replace the needle, and seat, you should replace them in both carbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fastbanshee8 Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 It's easy to do, but it's been years since I've had stock carbs, so I don't know what the cost would be. I'd have to guess at least $35-$50 per carb, for the needles, and seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAVAGE420 Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 Like said above, i would check and see if your floats in both carbs are set between 20-22mm. Then if so, move onto the needle/seat. You can read about it here. takes 15 mins or so to adjust your floats your first time..near the bottom of this link http://www.dfn.com/benkaren/jetfaq.html About your idle, do you still have your TORS on top of the carbs? (Big funky mofos gray things on top of the carbs) If so, then you will see a big knob with a slot in the top on top of the TORS. Turn them clockwise to raise idle and counter clock wise to lower it. Do both EXACTLY the same. Start with a 1/4 turn on both (counterclockwise)...ride it around for a minute or two and see how it idles, and if you want the idle a bit lower do another 1/4 turn on both the same.. If you have no TORS, well then the idle screws are on the side of the carbs, do the same as what i said above when turning them to adjust the idle. Here are stock carbs with NO T.O.R.S>>> http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c164/savage_420/Bansheecarb01.jpg Here are stock carbs WITH T.O.R.S>>> http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c164/savage_420/Carbsandreedsforsale001.jpg Let us know whats up man!!
