oldschoolsdime92 Posted March 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Got the bike running pretty well. I can't figure out 100% what each of the adjustable screws on the carb are adjusting, I have just messed and messed untill it was running decent. Does anyone know what exactly each screw is adjusting? I looked up the parts on bike bandit to see what they are called, and the smaller one is just called "pilot adjust screw" Whats the pilot? ..

oldschoolsdime92 Posted March 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 I got the idle issue taken care of awhile back, along with the fouling issue. It was an oil pump problem oil fouling the plug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldschoolsdime92 Posted June 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 its running good and reasonably reliable. Now for some odd reason at idle, (theres little tubes that run off the carbs, and down below the swing arm) and fuel runs out of them at idle. Any ideas?
