Samurai7one Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Moving this here from the L-6 engine forum to hopefully get some input: I had taken my triples off a couple weeks ago and wanted to check the accelerator pumps for consistency. Noticed a strange pattern on two of my carbs. One carb shot straight out as you would expect but the other two shot out to the side at least at a 45 degree angle. Definitely not in a direction that would be shot down the intake, but would get squirted onto the side of the intake probably about an inch away from the carbs. The angle of the streams from the barrels were parallel, both to the right. Any way to adjust this? Any ideas on cause?Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madkaw Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Noticed that on my 40's also. No way that I saw to change this. I guess you have to remember that the airflow would help pull it into the cylinder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z240 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I'll bet the tiny hole has a tiny bit of buildup/plugging that's causing the off axis squit. I'd want to clean those holes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
