This work wasn’t a separate request item.
Gasoline stains occasionally accumulate on the sprocket cover…
Since we went through the trouble of replacing and polishing it clean,
we checked to make sure there were no leaks, but it turned out to be surprisingly tricky.
Phew!
It’s slightly damp and wet? It seems to happen occasionally.
Some rust? Debris? had accumulated.
I can understand the desire to install a gasoline filter~
Gasoline seeping gradually is also part of the classic bike charm?
But it’s better to have no leaks.
For now, I’ve finished cleaning up what I could (*´ω｀*)
The float chamber has a lot of burrs, so it’s reassuring to remove them.
It’s been changed to an aftermarket rubber float valve.
I was impressed that such a product exists~
Let the gasoline flow through and let it sit for a while.
Now we can install it with confidence.
When I checked the operation here, I noticed the slide valve
moving in a really unpleasant way.
The slide valve had some kind of burr caught on it.
It was a contact issue on the carburetor body side.
Both #3-4 were in a similar condition.
Removing the burrs and polishing took 2 hours…
Finally it became smooth.
Classic bikes are scary… it’s always like this ( ；∀；)
To be continued.
