Ive just rebuilt my carbs with new keyster kits due to a mixture of hanging idle, and cutting out when pulling to a stop, and sticking floats. However the idle hangs still, cutting out is cured
Ive read the excellent carb guide over and over, all circuits are clean and there are no air leaks. There is a paragraph in the guide that states:-
"Too small of a pilot can be indicated by an idle that "hangs" after blipping the throttle or
by having the motor be slow to return to idle after running at higher speeds. Once again,
mix screw settings may help here"
So how do I tune out, richening or leaning? Any other advice would be great to if Ive missed somethig. My floats still stick now and again, although better mainly on the sidestand side, float levels are set at 24mm they have new valves
Thanks in advance, nearly problem solved all the new build issues
