Hity carb, just replaced PD19J with PD18j, #34 pilot, #75 main. It is 1-1/4 +_ 1/8 (that 1/8 is like a fine tuner/turner). Redid the float hang, pried it slightly up - - the float is parallel. Throttle response and release, idle return is key on. It never felt this responsive, strong with dead on return to idle RPM. My setting, with your demo, brought my engine sound, crisp, like your baby. The instruction was dead on. I’m on a 50cc. Really cool! Thanks!

Great information and well presented. I just got a used crf450x that smells like it runs rich and even runs like it runs rich and even when the engine is cold it starts better with the hot start lever pulled lol. I’ll be trying just what you did tomorrow. I’m guessing I may need to go to a smaller pilot as rich as it seems, but we’ll see.

I’m going to visit your website to see where you mentioned if popping or rumbling on deceleration , and or if a backfire snap after full throttle then let off snap, seems somewhat healthy or not? And side note how important is backpressure(a metal screen on end exhaust is just for dirt or really important)? U r a genius

FYI you can fit the R&D Racing Flex Jet to the FCR39 even though they say it only fits the MX version. The flex jet is in a better position and easier to adjust. I just used a small rats tail file to remove a little material from the tunnel that the screw runs through, it’s very easy. Some people drill the hole wider, but the interference is not concentric so drilling isn’t required and is a little more risk.

Hi Sir! thanks for share! Excuse my wrong english please! For pilot screw adjustement the higger rpm means stoich AFR? That little partial turn enrichement way that does not rise the rpm, can be cosider that rich range from 14,0:1~12,5:1 before rpm drops? or what AFR range would means? About main jetting, propper or safe combustion, AFR stoich or rich safe range and spark plug reading, are plug chop method the best way to look how many carbon deposits spark plug shows? O² sensor is not easy tool here... how many combustion time a spark plug need to show enough carbon deposits for every jet tested? I tested 5 jet numbers up from stock and not visible ring carbon deposits at insulator base after cut the thread body. thanks a lot Sir!

NOT GOOD.. the bike rips when i'm riding and sometimes will hang after i let off the throttle going into a corner. all i need to do is blip the throttle real quick and it typically idles right down. very odd. same thing in the air.. if i blip the throttle, the revs come back down. too much work though... i need to fix this. So i put all new jets and seals hoping it just needed a rebuild.. but same thing only now it doesn't want to cruise without sputtering. under load, no problem. she'll scream.. but it still hangs and now won't just cruise down the road without sputtering? fuel screw adjustment too lean?

I have an FCR-MX 41 installed on a quad that was originally injected. If I start from 2 turns out and tighten slowly (lean) the idle increases a lot right up until fully seated. As if to suggest more screw turning could further increase the idle. If I start at 2 turns and open the screw (rich) it slows down till it dies at around 3 turns. I believe that means my pilot jet is too big right? I think I have a 45 in there now. I'm thinking about going to a 42. Thanks

Your idle screw is the fuel screw what you on about? How can you have an idle screw and a fuel screw? You have an idle/fuel screw and an air screw

I have a yz450F runs good but back fires when u decelerate. Could this be the problem or could it one of the jets? The valves are good I checked them as well.

Could be lean, or exhaust leak, or blown out muff packing.

I went to go se my 2004 kx250f & i pressure washed it super good - looks brand new !!! But,,, the damn thing started to run like dook..... (Pressure washer might have turned fuel screw) idk but ,,, it started running hot & melted the airbox & spit out coolant for the first time ive ever seem that happen since ive owned it new..... I could not figure it out - this video nailed it & my bike idles , revs down & runs like before.... Slight bog at initial throttle but managable

Hey, I have a kx250f from 2007, and I can't find the fuel screw and the idle adjustment, it's not the same carburator. How can I fix my fuel screw? Because I always have to throttle, otherwise the bike stops and I'd like to fix this

So I have a 2008 yz250f I rebuilt the carb and put all new stock jets back in it. it runs fine except when I crack the throttle from idle it chokes and will die. I'm not sure what the problem is. any information would be helpful. thanks

@@HTMR Thanks for getting back to me. It revs on after releasing the throttle, I've taken the steps you suggested on the video, and there is a slight improvement, however I'm at 2 and a half turns and it still does it, I've put in the 45 pilot jet, I've tried a lot of things to stop it, and cannot get it to stop reving after the throttle is off, it gently reduces revs after around 5-10 seconds. Any help is really appreciated.

Do you have the idle revs low just for tuning and then turn it up after tuning or that low idle is how it should be?
@HTMR

Low just for tuning so you can easily hear changes. Then raise idle after done.

hey matt i have an 05 kx250f and its had trouble starting. the hot start plunger screw (plastic) stripped out, and it had a 45 pilot in it. just wondering if the leakage from the stripped screw would affect the bike so much to the point it will not start?? i have to blip the throttle to spray some fuel in the motor before hand which will sometimes turn it over, then it quickly revs and immediately bogs after to a stall even if you give it throttle. jets weren't clogged and sliding plate was installed correctly

MatthewMCRepair the bikes all fixed now, put too much grease around/in the tps when i did the carb rebuild. i found that running it with the tps unplugged adds some good throttle response but can affect the idle a bit. i ordered a metal nut for the hot start so that should be all set now. feel free to spread the word on that tho, many people have the same problem i did. great videos and thanks for the help!!

Hey Matthew I have a problem with my 09 yz250f the idle speed screw broke and it didn’t idle at all but it started after like 3 kicks and I rode with it like that for a while then just a week ago had a new screw put in and it started first kick and idled but now it has a bad hanging idle and takes of like the throttle is sticking but it’s not it’s smooth it doesn’t bog or anything it just will go by it’s self at like 15mph and if I pull the clutch in it revs way up and it’s super hard to start it when it’s hot now when before it started up just fine. I’m not sure if you will be able to help but thanks

This was 7yrs ago so I don’t know if there will be a reply but my bike is weird. It’s a 2002 suzuki quad runner and if I turn it in all the way it just revs up and doesn’t die and idle hangs but if I turn it out to factory setting (1-3/8) the idle still hangs. I turn it out to 4 turns and it idle better but shoots some black smoke. But when I ride it at times on the 4 turns out it hangs the idle sometimes. I have no idea if it’s running too rich or too lean.

Hi Matthew, I have a keihin fcr carb and a tusk adjustable fuel screw. Bike runs great but does not stay idling without a little extra throttle. There is no idle screw, only a fuel screw. Is it okay to adjust the fuel screw to get the idle up, or no? It runs great so I don’t want to mess with it if it won’t help.
@HTMR
@HTMR 6 жыл бұрын
No, do not adjust fuel screw to adjust idle. That carb should have an idle adjust, if not, buy the part.
@Y2daT420

the idle adjustment is a flex screw the threaded end goes in where u connect the throttle cables the opposite end goes to the left side of the carb and attaches to the carb bowl screws
