Well I hate starting new threads for questions, but I really need some info on these carb float needles to put the carbs back on the bike.
I am in the mix of tuning the carbs.
butterflies all set.
adjusting needles, looking at the diy
http://www.xjrider.com/viewtopic.php?f=68&t=1164
I am just going to set my digital caliper to 7.2mm and adjust each float to 7.2mm, not 6.2 or 8.2mm.
but the diy does not state what lobe to measure!
or are my lobes just bent and need to be fixed?
because idk whether to measure the fatter lobe or skinnier lobe because they are different heights.
do I just measure 1 lobe? if so which one, or do I make both lobes the same height by bending the meatal piece that connects the 2 lobes?
these are my current measurements.
Carb 1
Skinny Lobe: 6.12 mm
Fat Lobe: 6.68 mm
Carb 2
Skinny Lobe: 7.67 mm
Fat Lobe: 7.94 mm
Carb 3
Skinny Lobe:7.36 mm
Fat Lobe: 6.30 mm
Carb 4
Skinny Lobe: 8.08 mm
Fat lobe: 9.75 mm
if any are the carb are in spec enough to not even mess with, please let me know
thanks!
