Went and picked up a used 96 300ex yesterday for $850. It starts and runs good but the idle does need adjusted. Where do you adjust the idle at on these carbs? Also I want to get a service manual for it but should I get a Clymer, Haynes or pay the extra for the factory manual? Which one has the best explanations for repair?

Thanks

 

clymer would be the best manual...not sure how to set the idling, its been 4 years since i had mine

 

Thanks, anyone know how to adjust the idle? Im sure somebody on here has to know. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

I believe there **** on the carb that is kind of like a quick adjust. just play with that until it idles right. if you do not have the **** then i think you have to order a new on to actually be able to adjust the carb correctly.

 

I found it, thanks for the help. Not sure how I didnt see it before.

 

yea. Clymers is best. I learn from experience.
