    Could high idle after warming up be caused by worn jet or improperly adjusted float?

    Way ahead of you bud. Printed this out a month ago lol. This site had the PDF for the manual posted. The manual now sits on the seat of the bike.

    Could high idle after warming up be caused by worn jet or improperly adjusted float?

    I sympathize with that urge. Cars are one thing. Motorcycle maintenance, however, feels like a lost art almost. Why else would a website dedicated to asking and answering questions on how to fix just one model of bike even exist if not for this lack of available knowledge? I will take a feeler...

    Could high idle after warming up be caused by worn jet or improperly adjusted float?

    Should I look into adjusting the valves after this carb issue has been settled? Winter is coming and I'll be snowed out here in about a month so I'll have plenty of time. I have a service manual for this bike. I'm much more of a mechanic when it comes to cars bc there are things like alldata and...

    Could high idle after warming up be caused by worn jet or improperly adjusted float?

    Could high idle after warming up be caused by worn jet or improperly adjusted float?

    but now that I think about, the leak and my issue likely have no correlation.

    Could high idle after warming up be caused by worn jet or improperly adjusted float?

    So I should try backing off the idle? Maybe check to see if the throttle cables have enough slack? And I thought it could be the float because of the cylinder 1 carb that is leaking gas

    Could high idle after warming up be caused by worn jet or improperly adjusted float?

    I have a 1981 cb750 with about 18,000 miles on it. I've had this bike for a few months now and I've been trying to crack down on a high idle issue for a while and I can't seem to figure it out. I've replaced the boots from the airbox to the carb and from the carbs to the engine and I've sprayed...
