Its usually in the second move to the third(middle) for richer.

Yup, i would leak test. Is the carb mix screw set 1 1/2 turns out? Fuel lines and petcock clean and clear? Flywheel key in place? New plug?

I have repaired several of these set ups and have managed to keep the long parking brake cable also. The OP is correct on everything however missing one important step. You need to make sure the new pad moves slighly freely through the caliper before assembling. Do this with the o'ring on it and...

I use the 80w Gear Saver by Bel Ray also. Its what is recommended.

I dont doubt its the correct the combination for you. I am still waiting for the new gaskets so I can seal this baby up and try jetting it again. I will def post the final result dont you worry. Lol

I bet the new boot does the trick as it is supposed to have a form of built in rubber gasket to seal with. Problem is as they get old and heat and cool the rubber gets hard and flat and wont seal. I have same exact problem right now and will be making a gasket, same as other one, to put there. I...

U need to actually measure the float. it should be 20-21.5 mm from gasket mating surface,not on top of gasket, to top of float when you hold carb upside down. Just let the float rest lightly dont push it down.also cbeck you mix screw just for the hell with it, put it 1 1/2 turns out.

Yea, glad to have found the culprit. The rest of the motor held 8psi for longer than 15 min so no worries there.

Did another leak test and found huge air leak! It is between intake boot and reed cage. In my opinion there shouldve been a gasket there and between reed cage and head (which was there). I will prob make or order a new gasket and put it in between boot and cage. I made one out of cardboard to...

Getting them to work can be a little tricky. When u have the caliper fully apart make sure to clean it very well as most problems are from water. U will prob have to sand or carefully grind the whole where the pad slides in and out of as it gets very tight from corrosion. Re set the adjuster...

Yes it would leak and be wet. However if there is a split on a filter barb then it can leave fuel trapped above and below that point because fuel just cant totally empty from the line there.

Is ur fuel line in good shape? It may have a crack or split in it

Start with the idle mix screw 1 1/2 turns out. It should be pretty close there, and get ur idle set to idle at that setting. Then u can adjust the mix screw until u have a clean throttle response without the idle hanging high for a sec then dropping when u release the throttle. Also make sure ur...

I only said it that way to make sure we were talking about the same part. Thats why it was in quotations. I dont think there was any confusion about it but, thanks for the clarification.

it is a K&N cone type. Boyeseen two stage reeds, fmf silencer, stock head pipe or"fatty", snorkle on lid removed.

I have a FMF silencer, is that what u mean by "slip on"?

Appreciate all the help from guys first of all. I took it out today280 middle clip, put the lid back on just so i am only dealing with one change at a time. Float level is perfect at 21mm. It seemed to b a bit grogy and clogged at lower speeds but, once u got past that it pulled like a monster...

Well im not disagreeing with u, at least not yet.lol. im at 280 and still white as my ass. If i cant find any air leaks im likely to try going up myself.

Yup, i agree. I will check out tomorrow prob will post again. Thx

Yea thx for the tutorial but, i understand how its done. I also live on the train tacks so room to run isnt a problem. My chop today was white again with no lid and a 280 main. I will be checking further for air leaks. I will also add that the air filter side of intake seems pretty wet. hmmm...
