All of our carburetor projects begin with complete disassemble and inspection. Parts are checked for damage or wear. Diaphragms are checked for tears, holes or cracks and are repaired or replaced as needed. Rubber components are separated from the rigors of blasting media or ultrasonic cleansers and hand cleaned as appropriate. All o-rings are replaced. Fuel valve seats and needles are cleaned and polished or replaced as necessary. A variety of cleaning technologies are used including ultrasonic cleaners, media blasting, pressurized air and solvents systems together with many types of hand operations in cleaning and polishing for smooth and rapid movement of components for faster and better throttle response. A great deal of meticulous hand crafted care goes into our Oldskoolcarbs and it shows.
Special attention is given to all fixed and removable jets, flow circuits and flow testing. Carbs with natural finish
are often media blasted and polished. If painted, metal etching primers, ceramic coatings and oven curing are employed. All hardware is polished and clear coated. Carburetors are then re-assembled with new stainless steel socket head bolts, inspected and synchronized via bench testing. Many times this synchronization proves to be spot on after installation. Minor adjustments may be needed however with the motorcycle in operation.
PLEASE.... SPECIAL ATTENTION NEEDS
PRIOR TO RE-INSTALLATION
o Clean, flush, de-rust and/or coat your fuel tank
o Purge or replace all fuel lines, petcocks & filters
o Take all steps necessary to prevent re-fouling with dirt, rust or contamination
