Install a new welch plug over the idle fuel chamber with
the raised portion up. Use a punch equal to the size of
the plug, to flatten the plug. Do not dent or drive the
center of the plug below the top surface of the carburetor.
NOTE: To insure a good seal on this plug, we
recommend coating the seam with nail polish which is
gas resistant.
Primer Bulb Service: To remove the primer bulb, grasp
the primer bulb with a needle nose pliers and roll the
pliers along the air cleaner body. After removing the
primer bulb, the retaining ring must be removed. Use a
screwdriver to carefully pry the retainer out of the air
cleaner body. Do not reuse old bulb or retainer.
After the primer bulb is removed, clean the primer
passages thoroughly.
Press the new bulb and retainer into position using a
deep reach socket as shown.
CAUTION: Wear safety glasses or goggles when
removing retainer.
Install air cleaner body over the carburetor using a new
gasket.
NOTE: The VLV models use a closed loop breather
system. The crankcase breather tube must be
reconnected to the air filter body
Install the throttle shaft and shutter (use a new shutter
screw and dust seal). The scribe mark on the shutter
must be in the 12 o’clock position.
NOTE: If the scribe mark is out of position the shutter
may stick.
To rebuild the Float Bowl, refer to the previous section
on float bowl service.
Install the carburetor to the engine using a new gasket.
