Carb Issues / Rebuild
jayson said 2009-07-12 18:57
Hello, I recently purchased a 83´ GS850. With the simple main fluids replacement i got the bike running, but to keep it from stalling I had to keep some throttle on it. I asked about this and many people told me it needed a carb cleaning. I figured since it was so old it could prolly do with a rebuild if I was going to open the carbs up anyway. So now I´m rebuilding them but I´m a little stuck. There is a certain pilot screw I´m not sure how many rotations to screw in. When I opened the carbs each screw (on the 4 different carbs) was screwed in a different amount. Maybe this was the issue? Basically I´m looking for somewhere I can find the exact amount of turns this screw needs. Does anyone know of any web pages or manuals? Thanks.
