Re: The Official John Lee Jr Thread

Ever so slightly lean 140 primary main jet on the left...a factory supplied jet with these carbs. New 155 (larger) secondary main jet installed on the right. Some clean gas in the bowl too. A fine lookin gasket, even without a skim coat of blu goo.



Lotsa tape around the choke linkage to block off holes, rags around the carb and somma that tape sticky side up case I loose my grip on that wee lil tiney small can't see it with the bifocals on eclip.



From the armorers kit, Swiss Army Style, tweezers small enough to manuever that wee lil tiny undersize can't see the darn thing eclip.



Once positioned, a gentle squeeze from magnatized needle nose plyers to set the clip into the groove in the choke linkage. MAN! Three steady hands needed and much better vision....couldn't find my magnified eye loop. But, in and secure and HAPPY!. I won't do this job again without a spare gasket and ten of them wee lil eclips.



Buttoned it up and went for a ride and ya knows da rest!
