Heavier throttle (mostly) issues
MP81:
Sweet - sounds like stuff I can pick up at Home Depot as needed. I might actually have a couple set screws, somewhere...
MP81:
Hopefully you don't mind, but I'm going to document my progress here - in the event that I have an issue, or perhaps in case someone spots something I didn't!
Before removing the carb:
Carb removed - the inside of the intake looks pretty clean
MP81:
Carb off the car:
Fuel filter looks a tad dirty...
After a quick spray/wipe off with carb and brake cleaner - quite a lot cleaner (especially for doing this outside while being eaten alive by mosquitoes)! Time to let this dry overnight...
Cliff Ruggles:
Looks like it's had some work done to it. The primary throttle shaft screws have been out at some point, hopefully it got bushings during that evolution......Cliff
MP81:
It must have. Someone was saying a plug up top wasn't there that should be if it was never rebuilt.
How can you tell on the screws? Would be great if the bushings were done so I don't have to...
