Jaydee Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Working on an 85 GSXR 750 set of flatsides. Ripping them apart at the mo so I can begin to clean them and recalibrate. Looking at the Haynes, it states that the mixture screws should be turned in and back out HALF A TURN. Doesn't seem much compared to turns out on CV type carbs. As Haynes is never wrong, I thought I'd double check on here just to make sure as I don't want to be pulling the carbs out again. Quote
Jaydee Posted December 4, 2015 Author Posted December 4, 2015 Found a good pdf on VM29SS carbs while googling. Might be of use to someone. http://www.lunadesign.org/images/say what now!?/carbs/GSXR750 VM29 Flatslide Carb.pdf Quote
banoffee Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 I have the Suzuki workshop manual. PM me if you'd like scans of the carb section. Quote

I have them already stripped, cleaned and back in one piece since last night. Handy enough to figure them out. No harm though in getting extra info. Quote
Guest YoshiJohnny Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Half a turn is correct...make sure the seals are A1.... really best to replace them as they squish Quote
Jaydee Posted December 4, 2015 Author Posted December 4, 2015 Good call YoshiJohnny. The o-rings were squashed to death. Forgot the flatter thickness would affect the mixture screws true position. Have a little baggie with a load of o-rings that size stored in a safe place. So safe even I can't remember where I put the little fuckers. 1 Quote
