I just did the same thing to my 1985 shadow 700, learned as i went along , was running eratically with loads of backfires,- i put taking carbs off hoping it was something else but it ended up having to be done.Turned out the float levels were set wrong . Great video, good to see how someone else does it .

You pulled that carb off so quick I missed it all. But yeah, mine looks like that one with gunk under it so I got a rebuild kit. Just on my own to get the carb off. I think there is more to it that you showed which was the air filter and pop off a hose or two lol.

no kidding, seems like the part we clicked to learn about is always never shown, probaly to save the editing out of swearing and banging. What about just showing it to us and telling what the hoses are and were they go to instead of how crummy the previous mechanic was.

Worked good even though, the parts you put into the cold simple green and then put right away into the warmed liquid inside the Ultrasonic Cleaner, probably didn't get heated up in time to be that effective. Might be better to put all the parts inside and heat up the containers and the fluid all at the same time?

Жыл бұрын
your NOT supposed to flip it over with gas in it or it gets inside and ruins the sensitive diaphragm, the diaphragm says not to be exposed to anything like gas, solvents, or carb cleaner or it voids the warranty and fucks up the diaphragm. Not a problem if you drain the carb properly before you start flipping it around and on its side, but now it's probably ruined. Ask any Certified Honda Mechanic if you think I'm incorrect. I'm not bashing just informing and it's the truth. It's made of very pressure-sensitive materials and degrades instantly on contact with solvents or any petroleum-based distillates, as in the gas in it which in normal operating position does not enter the diaphragm chamber or components. There is a reason for doing everything a certain way.
