Use extraction gasoline to clean the carburetor. Blow the carburetor body with compressed air, paying special attention not to damage the diaphragms and valves.
The jets can only be cleaned by blowing them with compressed air. The jet holes are calibrated and their throughput is crucial for the operation of the carburetor, as well as the entire engine. Fuel consumption is directly dependent on the size of these holes.
The carburetor is assembled in reverse order.
After assembly is complete, basic adjustments are made.
Screw in the mixture adjustment screw until it stops (screw it in lightly, do not tighten this screw). Unscrew this screw three turns.
Adjust and set the float level in the float chamber.
To do this, the upper part of the carburetor with the float installed must be held vertically. By bending the float tongue in the required direction, it is necessary to obtain a size of 29±1 mm. measured from the seating surface of the housing to the edge of the float, taking into account the gasket on the seating surface of the housing. After installation, the carburetor diaphragm must be well stretched, and its surface must be smooth.
