jamie31888 Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Hi Everyone,Ive started to overhaul my carbs and have noticed that one carb has a sprung loaded needle and the other is solid.Is this correct or should they both be the same ???Please helpJamie.
piman Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Hello Jamie,you should have BO needles which are fixed.Alec
jamie31888 Posted January 30, 2012 Author Posted January 30, 2012 thanks alec , one of them is fixed the other sprung loaded and moves around.The fixed needle came straight out after i undone the retaining screw.The sprung one does not... should it just pull out ?I assume i can fit BO needles to the parts i have?
piman Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 Hello Jamie, yes it should pull out, there is no reason that a spring needle cannot be used as long as it is the right profile, but you need to remove it to see which needle it is? The needle reference is stamped on the shank.Alec
