80 Chopped XS
Can someone plz tell me how to install these ? I have a 1980 with BS34's. None of my books say how to do this . The bearing is very small as is the spring . HELP
the spring drops in, a little grease on the ball to stick it to the end of a small allen wrench will help, use it to push the ball down a bit till the beveled end of the choke shaft captures it, withdraw the allen wrench as you push the choke shaft in the rest of the way.
PS if the spring and ball get lost the ball and spring from a grease zerk fitting replace it perfectly, drill the end of the zerk slightly and the ball and spring come right out.
Thank you!Oh that! Top, front, the choke rod slides in from the side, there is a drilled hole from the top of the carb that goes straight through where the choke rod hole is. The ball and spring go down that hole before the choke rod is replaced. One set is needed but I have seen them on both carbs.
