Repair Instructions
Pressure testing the carburettor
Pressure testing should be carried out with the car- burettor fully assembled. Testing should always be carried out after the carburettor has been repaired, but a test can also be made for troubleshooting before dismantling.
Option 1
See the figure and carry out the check as follows:
1
Connect pressure tester to the carburettor fuel inlet.
2
Submerge the carburettor into a container with water. See figure 43.
3
Pump up the pressure to 20 kPa.
4
No leakage is permitted. If a leakage occurs refer to the table below.
Option 2
1
Plug the connections to the fuel inlet.
2
Create a vacuum to the purge nipple on the car- burettor. No leakage is permitted. In the case of leakage, leakage spray can be used even it if is dif- ficult. Try and identify where the spray is absorbed. It can be used to show leakages in main jets, idling needles, measuring cover gaskets and measuring diaphragms, and autotune gaskets.
