whatever dirt digger says is amazing.... he's a god on this website.... just listen to whatever he says.

you rock stabler!!! thanks for the help. I've gotten sidetracked on other more fun issues on this bike, carbs are no fun, what you have said makes sense to me for the most part. if I get stuck again I'll keep asking. this website is a way better source of knowledge than any service manual I have.

keyholes like the one in your picture on one of your forums all tore apart.

is a pd42 carb the stock carb? thanks stabler for the help and I do need a high five in the face with a chair... how bout a lazy boy?

how much for the tank?

just like everyone else..... can't seem to pull a straight answer from other posts and other websites on what adjustments to make. just need to get close. 77 750k, stock motor, 4-1 with shorty can, pod filters. so far I've decided to try 120 mains, 1 1/2 turns on a/f screws. what about idle...

replace the diaphragm and gaskets for accelerator pump. they are cheap. better yet have someone professional and familiar with these old carbs rebuild them for you. I spent 100$ on parts and cleaned and scrubbed for weeks at a time and got no where. had them professionally done and poof all...

will do. thanks a bunch.

my vision and what was/is my goal for the honda .... get it runnin and lookin rough this year.... slimy crud run, which is only like a month maybe away, not gonna happen..... and ama superbike races at road America is last weekend in May, the cycle parade would be a riot on it, way more fun than...

ugh..... I hear ya this winter bs can stop anytime now..... I only get to work on the bike Tuesdays and every once in a great while maybe sneak a Saturday in. it's at my buddy's shop. I had it runnin a bit to try and dial in carbs some last week. I checked the oil can this week and it had not...

dirtdigger how would you like to fly out to Plymouth Wisconsin and work on my p.o.s.? I have read a lot of forums in here and it seems like you are the it guy. thanks for the info and advice. where is this drain back valve? how do I go about replacing? I'm trying to get the bike running this...
