JRC Carb advice

[KiwiGF]

Just a thought but an air leak can cause a fast tickover as it prevents the carb being able to limit air going into the engine, unlikely but you never know....

I feel for you suffering these woes. My A10 has the old Amal 376, sometimes it ticks over like a watch, other times it's either too fast and sometimes it stalls.

I am thinking of going the JRC route but not if it's a b'stard to set up.

no problems to set up, i see you are in the uk so i can offer support if you buy from me as i am the sole importer into the uk and have done several A10's see website     www.brillbikeparts.co.uk 
you can buy with paypal, send me a cheque or ring me and i can take debit cards over the phone.

So, as we are all members of this forum, do you have the info that JFligg needs? Are you prepared to tell him what his set up should be, or at least a good starting point?

[rocker21]

difficult for me to do from here as the petrol over there is not the same as it is here, got different stuff in it and a different level of ethanol in it so that will effect the settings, i know what works in the uk and most of the EU as the fuel is the same, but north America is different which is why i gave out the email address of JRC in California as Bill is very helpful and will help, for some reason his bike won't tick over and is running rich and with the main jet he has it should not be that far out, as i said in a previous post i suspect something is wrong with the fuel enrichment device for cold starting as that produces a fast tick over and makes the mixture rich, but without seeing it, it is hard to diagnose and as he is in Canada it is probably better to deal with a local agent or direct with JRC .

Hi Guys
  I want to thank everyone for all there help.  It turns out that it wasn't a jetting issue.  The needle was foulling on the carb body and not causing the slide to fully close.  I hope it is not misaligned carb body and just a bent needle.  I'll keep everyone posted.  Jeff

not seen that one before, that is one to remember .

 Great to here Mike.
 Gotta be carefull with that little plastic bit that sits between needle and spring. Bugga of a thing to get the cable in.
But a great carb when tuned right. Ain't that fun when the motor is tuned a bit with 2 x 30mm PWKs, straight through rev cone megas and no filters. The only bit I didn't change was the float. And getting RSI holding wide open against 2 of those springs. Will have to find lighter ones.
Cheers
