procedures:
1) Remove the carburetor assembly. Refer to
“Carburetor Assembly Removal and Installation
(Page 1G-17)”.
2) Remove the float chamber body. Refer to
“Carburetor Disassembly (Page 1G-17)”.
3) To check the float height, tilt the carburetor as
shown.
4) Measure the float height “a” while the float arm is just
contacting the needle valve using vernier calipers.
Bend the tongue “A” as necessary to bring the float
height “a” to the specified level.
Special tool
: 09900–20102 (Vernier calipers (1/20 mm,

Carburetor Parts
Check the following items for any damage or clogging.
If they are clogged, clean the fuel passage.
• Slow jet
• Main jet
• Main air jet
• Slow air jet
• Needle jet holder air bleeding holes
• Float
• Jet needle
• Valve seat
• Piston valve
• Starter (enricher) jet
•O-rings
• Throttle valve
• Diaphragm
• Pilot outlet and by-pass ports
Needle Valve
Check the needle valve for damage or worn.
If foreign matter is caught between the valve seat and
the needle valve, the gasoline will continue flowing and
overflow. If the valve seat and needle valve are worn
beyond the permissible limits, similar trouble will occur.
Conversely, if the needle valve sticks, the gasoline will
not flow into the float chamber. Clean the float chamber
and float parts with gasoline. If the needle valve is worn,
as shown in the illustration, replace it along with a new
valve seat.
Throttle Valve
Check the throttle valve moves smoothly from full open
to full close. If it does not smoothly, clean the carburetor.
