rerb Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Hi, The throttle on my b12 doesn't return when let off, I thought it was a cable/tension issue but after replacing them I noticed that the throttle linkage on the carbs barely returns when disconnected from the cables. I cleaned everything up with carb cleaner and sprayed some wd40 on the outside linkage but it's still stiff. Is there a way to internally lube the valves without getting lube all throughout the carbs? thanks. Quote Link to comment

cnap504 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 WD-40 good for metal, not good for rubber, especially slide diaphragms Quote Link to comment
Swiss Toni Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I’d take them off, and ultra-sonic them. Just done the neighbours ...night & day! 1 Quote Link to comment
