Honda Shadow carb rebuild 

Sometimes you just gotta make it work 😂

Wheel bearing grease or you can use Vaseline

This video is kind of old and I don't remember what I did in the video but usually to bench test the carbs ill put a short piece of fuel line on the carb and hold the carb in the position it will be in on the bike and blow into the hose, you should be able to blow through it. Then flip the carb 180 degrees and blow again. You shouldn't be able to blow through it. Sometimes you get a carb that's a real pain and to check those you put the carb in the vice and rig up an umbilical tank and put gas right to it on the bench. then just watch it. As far as float height its honestly something ive gotten lucky with and ive never really checked or changed a float height so I'm not going to be much help there.

I’m not sure 🤔

This was a while ago. I don’t remember any springs tho

I would try eBay or go to a local dealer. Other than that I’m not sure

Amazon. Reuse what you can from OEM, particularly main jets

Which one?

Thanks for watching! I’m not taking other people projects right now 😅 sorry. If the carb is clean but fuel isn’t getting to the carb it’s probably the pump. That’s just a guess. What I’d try is pull the fuel line off the carb and see if you can get gas there first. It’ll make a mess but you’ll know it’s working. Idk if it has a pump or not. If it doesn’t have a fuel pump check the petcock.

@@ToyShop9665 @Toy Shop 9665 No worries, figured I'd ask. No fuel pump, just a petcock and downdraft carb. Seems the slide was getting stuck, and as well as the float. Fixed that, and it idled for a 3 seconds on starter fluid. Gonna try connecting petcock today. Thank you for your video.

This is why I like OEM better than aftermarket for carbs. Lol which boot?

@@ToyShop9665 in Italy I didn’t find OEM . ,,rubber boot “ I mean the membrane .

@@SometimesWeMustStayInTheShadow so the rubber that’s attached to the slide? I reused that whole assembly

@@ToyShop9665 yeah

I don’t remember off hand. Sorry
