ok i have the bowl off the carb on a 99 sport but how do you get the pilot jet out? any help?


PS- on the jetting i let it idle for aobut 7 minutes and pulled the plug and it wasnt quite a "brown" color yet, it was a light colored cream, so ill have the needle clip in the second slot up, a 250 main jet, and a 37.5 pilot.

 

forget what i said earlier,go look here its #15

 

alright i have the main jet out.....but im not seeing anything....?

 

took out the wrong thing..if ur goin for the pilot u gotta remove teh 4 screws and the carb will seperate, there u will see the pilot

 

he has the bowl off already.if i recall,my carb wouldnt spilt apart untill i removed the main jet?

 

thanks for the replies you two....but i figured it out. you dont have to take the main jet out to split it...you take out the four screws on the bowl and then remove it. from there, you look down the metal tube next to the main jet and the pilot is in there.

another thing....what do you guys think of my plug? when i run it it seems about perfect.

looks pretty good. how warm was it and what part throttle?

 

i let it idle for about 6 minutes and then i started to vary the throttle from idle to 3/4



i got another Q.....how do you tighten the chain?

 

maybe richen teh air/fuel a little.

u gotta loosenthe two bolts on the carrier and the two bolts on teh brake thing then u can put a pin throuhg the sprocket to a whole on the carrier and roll the wheels back or u can take a big wrench and twist the carrier back

 

alright...thanks im gonna go do that
