Yeah, a lot of people miss the mid body. But it's also one of those things where if you don't break the gasket, it's probably fine. Personally, my carb only ever comes off if something is seriously wrong or clogged, so I refresh everything when it's off. But I could understand the reasoning behind not doing a mid-body.

@@TheGamersRace Please save me. Pilot circuit not working - I think. Where does fuel go when it passes the fuel screw? does it come out the tiny hole in the air tube behind the vacuum plate?? (where the end of the fuel screw goes) or does it run through the mid body and go somewhere else? I'm trying to clean out the passages that the fuel screw controls, but I can't figure it out. (it seems to me that the circuit isn't flowing at all. only runs with the idle throttle screw set near maximum. just had carburetor rebuilt at a local shop, including mid-body, but it came back with fuel screw all the way in, and stripped, and when I tried to adjust it, it fell out. now it seems to be threading in, seating, and adjusting just fine. I guess I'll just put it back on the bike and see if it's working.

@@rudysaldivar4228 ​ Rudy Saldivar i do allot of FCR carb rebuilds for customers and we only split the body when someone breaks the air/fuel mix screw and the tip jams in the port or when someone pulls the carb and lets it sit in a veryy dirty place (shed, outside etc)where water could have flooded that area for prolonged time. we had carbs that had been sitting 10yrs+in various environments that didn`t need the body to be split as there is never ever any fuel sitting in the middle body and dirt etc cannot reach the mid body as it would get stuck in the jets. Factory puts paint in the small alan bolts holding the body and even locktight glue as its a very rare occasion one has to break the body and its also a pain for the person doing the job i guess that was their intention. using old orings and gasket in the middle body could cause a small leak in between powerjet, main etc and it will make you go crazyy trying to jet the bike so always get some new orings and gasket if your ever opening it. plus really there`s nothing to clean in there all the jet ports you have on the bottom if cleaned properly will automatically clean the internal chambers. A good fcr service after a long time sitting should include what Cameron did in this video with maybe some new jets and orings, one thing to look for is the slide plate has a tiny oring they sometimes crack or go bad i like to replace them on old carbs. always avoid splitting the main body 99.99% of the time there`s no need hence why the factory made it hard for the bolts to be removed and not much parts can be found for that area of the carb or when found they are quite expensive.

I would like to see more attention given to the float bowl area where the fuel pump is. These bowls are not as common as they used to be and 4 cycle carbs incorporate a fuel pump diaphragm in there with a ball bearing item and a tiny jet that was clogged on mine. It's much more than just replacing a diaphragm and o-rings! I want to give them items a good soaking including the fuel pump cover to make sure all fuel ports and tunnels are clear when blown out. What carb cleaner is preferred for this? I also have a new can of starting fluid I don't need for anything now, can this be used as a 'spray on/blow off' cleaner or is it bad for things? Is it ok for a soak? I suspect it will evaporate fast though.
@TheGamersRace
@TheGamersRace 2 жыл бұрын
Accelerator Pump** The one way ball valve is common knowledge, just shake the bowl to check if it's free. You can spray carb cleaner directly through the valve and blow it with air if it is not free. This valve allows fuel into the Accelerator Pump without allowing that fuel back out of the pump chamber. The small jet on the Accelerator Pump is called the Leak Jet. This jet allows "excess" pressure from the pump back inside the float bowl instead of squirting it into the engine. Most people will either get a smaller Leak Jet (try a 50) or seal it completely to boost performance when "snapping" the throttle open. Another thing that can be done is to put an O-Ring around the Pump Rod Link Lever and timing adjustor screw (behind the plastic throttle cover). This keeps them locked together so there is no gap, and therfore no delay, in the actuation. Safety wire can also be used, but I'd recommend an O-Ring as it's easier and is less likely to wear on the moving parts. As for carb cleaner, please remove the flat slide and floating valve plate before using carburetor cleaner. The floating valve plate is coated in Teflon which can be harmed by the chemicals in the cleaner. Also if this plate is worn, it should be replaced or idling issues can occur. It is considered a wear item. As for starting fluid, please do not use starting fluid as a cleaner. It can leave an oily residue behind on the carb (much life normal fuel can) which attracts dirt to a bike which will live most of it's days in the dirt. Using a light water-based degreaser (ex: simple green) should be perfectly fine. I personally use water diluted Simple Green and a Ultrasonic cleaner to clean my carburetors thoroughly, and then compressed air to dry everything off and blow out all the passages. I've found it to be unreasonably easy, cheap, and chemical free and is a real no-hastle solution to cleaning my carbs. Note that simple green can still hurt the teflon coating on the floating valve plate, so it's best to clean that with just soap and water. They're expensive to replace prematurely at around $100. (Damn teflon...)

@dylanheadrick3789 7 жыл бұрын
Carbs tend towards increasingly complex designs as the requirements for performance over wider RPM and load ranges increase as well. In the infancy of motorcycles, it wasn't uncommon to have a carburetor without a variable throttle like we are so used to now. The engine speed used to be set by the advancing of spark timing while the carb metered a set amount of fuel. As engine performance climbed, so too did the demand for better performing carburetors. Variable throttle carbs began to take hold in controlling engine speed which in turn meant that now carbs had to provide the correct amounts of intake charge for varying throttle positions and different engine load situations at each. If the same carb settings could be used for any throttle/ load combination, there would be no need for such complex mechanisms; however, that is entirely false. The fuel requirements for a closed throttle, no load condition is very different from a WOT, high load condition. That means there must be means of adjusting the air/ fuel ratio on the fly as it is required. This is where different circuits come in. For example, under low load and closed throttle, the idle circuit is exclusively (assuming proper tuning) supplying the engines fuel. When the throttle is held wide open, that fuel need is greatly increased to the point that an idle circuit would simply lean out and stall the engine. Now the carb utilizes its main jet circuit to supply the rest. Now we have the proper metering for the only two conditions that drag racers care about. Last time I checked though, I wasn't driving a drag racing engine down to the local Papa John's. In street performance, we need in between positions, which means we need more carburetor circuits, which also means we need more complex carburetors. I'm sure you can see where this is going. Modern carburetors now employ dozens of different metering circuits, means of transitioning up these circuits, different means of going down the circuits, load sensing devices that compensate for high or low manifold vacuum conditions, and more that all contribute to getting the most out of an engine that we can. Hopefully i answered some questions with my incredibly long winded comment.

All fuel related openings should be cleaned with a tiny wirebrush. They sell really small wirebrushes. Only then will the carb be really clean. And all jets need to be inspected from all angles to make sure all openings are 100% clean. Use a brash wirebrush piece to clean them out. Spray carb cleaner into them.

Great video, thanks very much! If it is not to much trouble, at 4:20, are you applying grease there? If yes, what grease? Is there any danger of it getting stuck in the jets? Thanks!

Great vid i would have seen it before doing mine but i dont see why its most complicated than other pump carbs or car carbs for an example. Its a bunch of peeces but it not so complicated.

Man that fcr is beautiful. I don't know how much a vat of cleaner costs but I thought my small can of parts cleaner with the basket was high haha. I noticed that you didn't get carb cleaner on the accelerator pump diaphragm. I did and it rolled up like crazy. I should have bought another but I was able to flatten it out enough to get the cover on. Also, what I love about the fcr is the shield around the jets and the round cover in the carb bowl which make it easy to change the jets without removing the carb or the entire bowl.

great job and a great video, i would just like to point out that it seems like you forgot the tiny washer and rubber o ring that is supposed to go on the air/fuel mix screw, these often times get forgotten because they get stuck inside the hole where the screw goes. Any rebuild kit comes with this tiny rubber. Greetings from Holland.
