Takeaways

• 😀 The video demonstrates how to clean the carburetor of a Supra Fit motorcycle.
• 😀 The first step is to open the throttle valve (skep) and the fuel filter before cleaning the carburetor.
• 😀 The fuel filter should be cleaned to avoid contamination during carburetor cleaning.
• 😀 After removing the filter, the manifold bolts are undone (using an 8mm wrench) to extract the carburetor.
• 😀 The external cleaning of the carburetor is done first to avoid introducing large dirt particles into the carburetor’s internal components.
• 😀 Compressed air is used to blow out dirt from the carburetor’s filter and other parts.
• 😀 After cleaning the exterior, the carburetor bowl is removed by unscrewing the two bolts located at the bottom.
• 😀 The main jet and pilot jet are cleaned using a small wrench or spanner (size 7).

Q & A

What is the first step in cleaning the carburetor as shown in the video?

The first step is to open the throttle valve (skep) and then remove the fuel filter, as it is often prone to dirt.

Why is it important to clean the outside of the carburetor first?

Cleaning the outside first helps prevent any coarse dirt from entering the internal parts of the carburetor when it is disassembled.

How is the fuel filter cleaned in the process?

The fuel filter is cleaned by spraying it with air from a compressor to remove dirt, ensuring that the filter is clean before further disassembly.

What tools are used to remove the carburetor's manifold bolts?

The manifold bolts are removed using a size 8 wrench to loosen the bolts on both the left and right sides.

Why is it essential to avoid using pliers when handling the pilot jet or main jet?

Using pliers can damage the pilot jet or main jet, potentially ruining their body or threads. It is recommended to use the correct size wrench for these parts.

What is the purpose of washing and spraying the carburetor parts with gasoline and compressed air?

Washing and spraying the parts with gasoline and compressed air helps remove dirt and ensures all parts are dry and clean before reassembly.

What is the function of the float needle in the carburetor, and how is it removed?

The float needle regulates fuel flow into the carburetor. It is removed by lifting the float holder upwards, allowing access to the needle.

What precaution should be taken when installing the fuel filter?

Before installing the fuel filter, a small amount of oil should be applied to the O-ring to make it easier to fit and avoid damaging the O-ring during installation.

What should be done after reinstalling the carburetor onto the motorcycle?

After reinstalling the carburetor, ensure that all bolts are tightened properly, using thread adhesive if necessary, but avoid over-tightening to prevent damage.

How do you ensure proper air flow during the cleaning process?

Compressed air is used to blow through all parts of the carburetor to ensure that any remaining debris is expelled and that the internal passages are clear.
