That long tube in the carb center is the emulsion tube. The main jet is the little piece with the tiny hole and flat head with threads.

There is a black plastic screw on the left side facing the front. When you unscrew it you can get to another plastic screw. Make sure that the jet is not clogged. That will stop the surging engine.

çok güzel video olmuş. Benim temizleme yöntemim tüm karbüratörün parçalarını söküyorum hatta hava filtre parçalarını da söküyorum, onları delikli bir kabın içine koyuyorum. sonra bulaşık makinasının içinde bulaşık sıvı el deterjanı ile yıkattırıyorum. Ne yağ ne pas nede pislik kalmıyor. Zaten kurutmayı da bulaşık makinası yapıyor. it's a very nice video. My method of cleaning is disassembling all the carburetor parts and even removing the air filter parts, putting them in a perforated container. Then I have it washed in the dishwasher with dishwashing liquid hand soap. There is no oil, rust or dirt left. The dishwasher already does the drying.

Your air cleaner is an oiled foam type. It is meant to be soaked in oil. To clean it use some degreaser to clean the dirty oil out. Squeeze out and let dry then re-oil with filter oil which is avalable at any motorcycle shop.

The 1 in the middle is the main jet and the one on top of it is the spray bar and the black jet on top is the air jet and there is a small hole the gets plugged and that is what makes the engine surge up and down

@obviouslytwo4u
@obviouslytwo4u 2 года назад
@@GustavoGarcia-gt6fjif you have changed the spark plug and it is still doing this I would check the spark when it cuts out to see if possibly the coil is worn. Or it could be a swollen float bowl valve needle that it slowing down the rate of fuel entering the float bowl. Best way to find out if your fuel is coming out slow is to take the fuel bowl off while that carburettor it's still on the engine and see how much your drops out as it should be a considerable amount. If it is barely coming out I would suggest that could be a blockage or the needle valve is swollen gas stopping the fuel from coming this stopping the fuel from coming out. I would also look at not consuming animal products as starvation to the brain can cause confusion. If you do research on how much better a plant-based diet is you will get incredibly smart and fast. I promise you this my friend

Running a pump with no water in it, will destroy the seal between engine shaft and impeller face in short order. Usually in less than 1 minute.

Hi there. I have a brand new honda gx390 engine. When I wnet to start it up, it started at first pull. Then when i moved the choke to the right (off position) it would shut down and stall. It would take me 3 pulls to start it up properly then it would run just fine. I checked the main jet and it was clean! I do mention the gas is a couple months old would that be the problem? The air filter and everything else is clean and fresh oil.
@ChrisXOutdoors
@ChrisXOutdoors 2 года назад
Hi Petru. Thank you for reaching out. The gas could be the problem but I'm not 100% sure without looking at it. So it runs fine now? It just needs 3 pulls to start?
