BMW Bing CV Carb Rebuild. Common Problems & Tips in Detail

Here I deal with the common problems you will come across when rebuilding airhead carbs. Hopefully in enough detail to help everyone tackle most of this themselves. They can almost always be saved, but doing so is not an easy job.

Thank you SO MUCH for this. So informative seeing this rather than a factory tear-down. This is real life! Much appreciative of your time. -Dan

Outstanding video, thanks for sharing

Excellent instruction, thank you very much!

[@dannyk1d]

Happy to help.

Very impressive!

[@allanmaureenmacintyre4474]

Daniel, with regard to locked screws, I always use heat [obviously on a carb that would only be a heat gun and carefully] and I always tighten first before attempting to loosen. Now that might not have worked here but I've had a lot of success over the years.

[@tedmagnum6968]

I was surprised he didn't use heat also. A small propane turbo flame works wonders in tight places where you can't get the MAP torch. I've been restoring bikes for years and the heat guns are the most important weapons in the arsenal

Good video! Thanks.

Daniel nice informative video, Question: if I find my R75 runs rich (plugs nice n sooty) should I change the needle position? (air screws are currently 1/4 turn out, both carbs) thanks

[@audriusmos]

Hi, Daniel. Could You share how to remowe jet needle fixator our of the slide? One of needles is not centered while fixed all the time looks to one side. Needle is allready worn out to the jet hole ant not round any more.

[@kurobisukou123]

Awesome awesome work. You def have a lot of patience working with all this carbs. Do you do rebuild for customers?

[@dannyk1d]

How much would a rebuild of two Carburetors cost?

[@peter-jangerrits1880]

Hi Daniel, great video!! What type of blasting is this ?

[@dannyk1d]

Vapour blasting. Water and very fine glass bead mixed. Leaves a lovely finish without any abrasion to the surface.

[@skou2504]

Hey Daniel, really informative video. Do you mind telling us where you buy the parts from? Great video, thumbs up from Denmark :)

[@dannyk1d]

I get all my carburettor parts from Motobins in the UK. Motorworks also sell everything.

[@rafamotorrad]

[@dannyk1d]

Hello. I’m glad you enjoyed the video. I don’t understand your question, which products are you asking about?

I found a bing 64/3213 at a thrift shop...thought I was doing good until I discovered that someone had broken off the small jet inside the shaft - a small remainder of the brass jet can be seen in the base of the shaft the small jet screws into. Any tips on how to remove this without damaging the carb for good?

[@dannyk1d]

Once the heads on the jets are broken or rounded, I’ve never managed to remove them. They are a very fine thread, even drilling them out carefully doesn’t work. I usually source a replacement body from one of the suppliers.

[@Britcheflee]

@@dannyk1d OK thank you appreciate your advice...I only paid $5 for it at a thrift shop so no real loss.

[@blyxxxnis]

what is the level off cerburator flot off bmw R65 ? thanks for answers

[@dannyk1d]

It is hard to explain quickly . But with the carb upside down, the casting line on the float that follows along from the metal clip should be horizontal to the carburettor body when the float needle just touches the seat, without pressure on the spring.

[@peter6782]

try using an extra long screwdriver the extra torch you get from the length of it is a great help .

[@peter6782]

Oh what😔 did you do that? of all the things i needed to watch was the needle circlip and adjustment i know they are usually simple but i cant get my head around mine, and what do you do you go speed things up to a million miles an hour 😔

[@kevinbrooks7947]

Hi how much do you charge to strip, blast and rebuild a pair of Bing 32mm carbs for a R80g/s? Thanks Kevin

[@dannyk1d]

Hi Kevin. I charge £100 for a set, plus parts. Hard to tell exactly, but at a minimum new gaskets, o rings, diaphragm and screws £29.40. Slide needles and needle jets are good to replace at around 50k and while the carbs are apart £26.40. Other than that, you never know for sure until the carbs are stripped.
