screw

Finally have the bike running very well. Now that everything else seems to be OK, I have noticed that if I ride the bike to work, and come out to go to lunch 4 hours or so later, it won't idle unless I choke it. I have the A/F screws 3 turns out, and this seems to fix the problem, but that...

I am in the process of setting up my carbtune and when I cut the restrictersin 4 pieces I cut it in half and then when I cut the 2 pieces in half again I was off so I ended up with 2 longer pieces and 2 shorter pieces. the short pieces are about 1/4" shorter than the long ones... Shit I can...

Hi folks: Why does my idle sound and speed not change at ALL when I screw in the pilot screws ALL THE WAY on carbs for cylinders 1 and 3? I thought that doing this would mean no fuel going to cylinders 1 or 3? When I do the same for carbs 2 and 4, the idle sound and speed drops, though...

I am looking for a 5mm x .8 thread 10-20mm length screw that has a pointed end.. anyone have any idea where i could buy one? reason: my headlight housing doesn't fit 100% into the bucket for whatever reason. so the two bolts that hold it all together don't line up perfectly to the threaded...

I was wondering if anyone knows what the threads per inch are for the pilot air jet screw. The threads in one of my carbs got mess up a little while I was working a stuck screw out and I just need to clean them up a little before trying to put the new one in. Thanks

I'm a novice mechanic for the most part but the owner that had the bike before me was as mechanically inclined as Homer Simpson.Is there any ballpark setting for the PAJ 1 and PAJ 2 screws?I'm pretty sure he had them turned all the way in when i first took the carb apart so i have no idea of the...

Does anyone know how to remove the air/fuel screws after they have been damaged? The A/F screw heads on 2 of my carbs are damaged due to being ripped out by trying to turn corroded in screws. They were flathead, but now look like the safety screws used in bathroom stall dividers, aaand the...

I did the "shotgun" procedure today..... Does anyone have an affordable source for the pilot screw sets? I'm seeing retail prices between $13-$16 per x4. My slides are questionable also and those are going for $88-$102. Any suggestions?? Thanks.

Would anyone (MOD?) have a picture of the mixture screw locations on my 07 Vmax? Thanks in advance,

Hey guys, ran into some problems while doing the shotgun to the carbs a little while back. My A/F mixture screw was stuck so I have been soaking it with PB Blaster for a while hoping it would free up and when I went back to try again.....the head stripped. :bang head: Anybody have any luck...

I lost my idle thumb screw and was wondering if anyone knew what size thread it has? I might roll over to ace hardware or menards and see if they got sumptin that will work...

My idle mix screws and springs are in good shape. Anyone found a place to get the washer and o-ring separately?

Long story (Sorta) I was about out of gas last night when I got home frmo work and didn't feel like stopping at the station. So I figured I would put a gallon in her this morning and get more gas at lunch. Anyway, I have this "no spill" gas can that has this spring loaded nozzle that has this...

If I want to make sure the settings on the mixture screws are correct, how many turns out should they be? I want to make sure they are correct, since I messed with them the stumbling and crappy performance has become worse :bang head:. Thank you in advance.

Hey quick question. Im setting my Air / Fuel screws and when i went to screw them in to see what they were set at it really didnt seems as it ever stopped. I went up to 6 turns in and it never seated. I got freaked out so I backed out the 6 turns and started in again. this time ever so gently, i...

carb 1 is not responding when seat or unscrew the mixture screw. I did a shotgun due to a dead cylinder so was wondering where else i could be having a problem. any ideas?

What is a good replacement screw for the side cover on the carbs/ the cover that is over the Vboost. Mine are chromed. They have a large phillips head on them. In my infinent wisdom i left mine in with the covers off to make a few test runs. Of course one vibrated out. any ideas?

The screw is in the same location for all four carbs. Mark #1098

Does anyone know were to find Bleeder Screw Protective Caps, the ones on the bike have deteriorated and cracked, are they available at local auto parts stores? Thanks ________ Ford XW Falcon history
