Hey thanks Tommy Thompson for posting your video. I have a 1994 Harley XL 1200 and needed to rebuild my carb. Imma go with the 42mm mukuni carb soon though.

Thanks for posting this. My 2003 Sporters carb is just like yours. Mine idles just fine and even does great with the choke on but as soon as I give it throttle it dies. I've cleaned all the jets check the flow to carb, but can't figure what the problem is.

+Ride AMAP (As Much As Possible) Not sure what is going on with your carb, but it sounds like something is wrong on the vaccum side, it might not be opening the slide when you give it gas.
@revbikerbigd86646 жыл бұрын
Ride AMAP make sure pump squirts gas and slide goes up when cracking the throttle! May need new slide?

"looks like 'somebody' put a piece of spring on the cable"... yes, somebody in Milwaukee maybe.
@1otviii5 жыл бұрын
Yeah. On a 4 year old video. Spring is to keep cable tight, apparently vibration on harleys breaks cables frequently.
