I ran a DE this past weekend. It seemed that with each session, idle became a bit rougher and slower. By the end of the day, a few friends said it sounded like I was running on 3 cylinders coming back into the paddock. I suspect a dirty fuel filter and /or clogged idle jets. WOT was pretty reasonable.
Where are the idle jets on these carbs? Do I need to pull the top half off to get to them? If so, do I need a need gasket to reassemble? I have no idea if they have even been split and Jake built the motor about 4 years ago. Thanks and any help. Hal |

Ok, get this! I ran out of time and didn't get to checking the other 3 idle jets. I was scheduled to take it to my wrench yesterday anyway so I'll let him deal with it.
So I get in and fire it up. Starts pretty normal but really rough as it had since the DE. It stalls once as I back out of the garage. I restart and I get one solid backfire through a carb. It restarts just fine. It immediately feels better and by the time it warms up, it is running the best it has since I've owned it. Any ideas what may be happening here? Loose points? A reverse pressure clean of the jets with the backfire? Crazy! Hal |
