carburetor help
Posted: Tue Jan 14, 2014 9:32 pm
Hi
Sid here - working on a new project - z1000 st
Can someone help with a question on the carburetors, they are similar to the carbs on my Z900 (NON cv type with three screws on top cover )
However they also have an adjustment screw with a tapered end and spring located underneath by the float bowl on the side towards the head. - looks like a mixture screw for idle mixture but not sure
I've looked in the workshop manuals i have but cannot see any info on them
Can anyone advise what should be the basic setting ( i.e number of turns out from seated position )
Also any info on setting up would be great
Thank you
SID
