5. Remove the idle speed (RPM) adjustment screw

and spring from the carburetor. Discard the parts.

NOTE: The carburetor is now disassembled for

appropriate cleaning and installation of the
parts in the overhaul kit. Further disassembly
is not necessary. The throttle shaft assembly,
fuel inlet seat, idle fuel adjustment screws
with limiter, and carburetor body, are non-
serviceable items and should not be removed.
The choke shaft assembly is serviceable,
however it should not be removed unless a
Choke Repair Kit will be installed.

6. Clean the carburetor body, main jets, vent ports,

seats, etc. using a good commercially available
carburetor solvent. Keep away from plastic or
rubber parts if non-compatible. Use clean, dry
compressed air to blow out the internal channels
and ports. Do not use metal tools or wire to clean
orifices and jets. Inspect and thoroughly check
the carburetor for cracks, wear, or damage.
Inspect the fuel inlet seat for wear or damage.
Check the spring loaded choke plate to make sure
it moves freely on the shaft.

7. Clean the carburetor fuel bowl as required.

8. Install the two main nozzles into the towers of the

carburetor body. The end of the main nozzles
with the two raised shoulders should be out/
down (adjacent to the main jets). Make sure the
nozzles are completely bottomed. Carefully
install the main jets into the towers of the
carburetor body on the appropriate side, as
identified when removal was performed. See
Figure 5-54.

Figure 5-51. Main Jets and Nozzles Removed.

4. Remove the screw securing the flat washer and

ground lead (if equipped), from the top of the
carburetor; then carefully pull (lift) out the two
slow jets. The slow jets may be size/side specific,
mark or tag for proper reassembly. Note the small
O-Ring on the bottom of each jet. See Figure 5-52
and 5-53. Save parts for cleaning and reuse unless
a Jet Kit is also being installed. Clean the slow jets
using compressed air. Do not use wire or
carburetor cleaner.
