Let’s disassemble the carburettor. There aren’t many vacuum carburetors without a return system these days. The unusually strong return spring might be a reflection of the era.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"DSC_6915\"<\/a>
\nBoom! There are signs of some disassembly. It looks like only the float gasket was replaced… The float valve shows no severe damage, so we’ll reuse it.
\nThe O-ring on the float valve seat side is loose, so it was leaking sideways.<\/p>\n

The PS doesn’t even have a washer or O-ring installed. With this setup, it runs great no matter who assembles it\u2014we’re grateful for that.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_6917\"<\/a>
\nWaiting for parts…<\/p>\n

\"DSC05955\"<\/a>
\nIf the throttle cable were bent about 20 degrees, it might run more smoothly.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"DSC05956\"<\/a>
\nWe narrowed down the model from our abundant collection of actual throttle cable samples.<\/p>\n

\"DSC05962\"<\/a>
\nThe air cleaner too…<\/p>\n

\"DSC05948\"<\/a>
\nMelted wiring and rough wiring… we’ll handle that later.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_6913\"<\/a>
\nThe spark plug cap is NGK.<\/p>\n

\"DSC05961\"<\/a>
\nIt looks subtly original, which I think is nice.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_6912\"<\/a>
\nIt’s a great time to live in when you can choose and create fonts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
