Guest Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 (edited) should the plastic inserts in the carbs sit proud like this the o rings are all in the proper place and this is as far as they will seat Edited April 18, 2016 by yellowcakeuf6 Quote
Phill106 Posted April 19, 2016 Posted April 19, 2016 Pic isn't working. So totally guessing what you are talking about but do you mean the slides connected to the diaphragms? If so as long as it's almost fully closed (about 1-2mm gap at bottom) as you look through the barrel that's right. Quote
Phill106 Posted April 19, 2016 Posted April 19, 2016 As long as it's at the bottom of it's guide run then it's fine. It does need to let some air through to run on idle lol Quote
Captain Chaos Posted April 19, 2016 Posted April 19, 2016 if you mean the white bits, they should go all the way down, in line with the venturi. Quote
Guest Posted April 19, 2016 Posted April 19, 2016 yes the white bits is what im on about they dont go all the way down and every carb is the same i used genuine o rings on them and they wont seat any further down Quote
Guest Posted April 19, 2016 Posted April 19, 2016 I found this picture on the web and these look the same as well Quote
Captain Chaos Posted April 20, 2016 Posted April 20, 2016 on all my slingshot carbs (6 sets in total) they are all the way down. Have you tried without the O-ring? Quote
Phill106 Posted April 20, 2016 Posted April 20, 2016 O ring fitted correctly? Does it have to be slid onto the part rather than plonked in the hole? Quote
Guest Posted April 20, 2016 Posted April 20, 2016 The o ring sits in its own groove I didn't notice if they were sitting level before I stripped the carbs I will try them without the o rings but like I said all the carbs are looking the same Quote
Guest Posted April 20, 2016 Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) well i took out the o rings and they sit in the same position so it must be a factory f~~k up then.oh forgot to say in the first post the carbs are off a mk1 1200 bandit Edited April 20, 2016 by yellowcakeuf6 Quote
Guest Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) http://www.factorypro.com/images/carb_shots/emuhidisp.gif it looks like some carb slide guides sit flush and some dont this is what mine look like so im guessing its normal to have the guides not sitting flush Edited April 22, 2016 by yellowcakeuf6 Quote
Rene EFE Posted April 23, 2016 Posted April 23, 2016 Mine (10+ sets) are all flush. The whole principle of carbs work off how the ventury is shaped, so the lip can't be good. Quote
