CARBURETER ADJUSTMENTS
PUMP ADJUSTMENT: (41 IS-4175-4375-438S) With throttle closed and pump connector link in lower hole (medium stroke). Pump plunger should travel 14/64 inch from closed to wide open position. Use gauge T109-1175. Adjustment can be made by bending throttle connector rod at lower angle.
ANTI-PERCOLATOR ADJUSTMENT: (3295.3305-41IS-4175-437S-438S) Open throttle valve .030 inch between lower edge of throttle valve and bore of carbureter (opposite port) (Use .030" wire gauge). Adjust anti-percolator lip (by bending) so that there is a clearance of .005" to .015" between it and pump arm with anti-percolator cap seated.
UNLOADER ADJUSTMENT: (329S-330S) With throttle wide open, adjust curved lip on fast idle block so lower edge of choker valve is 7/16" from inner wall of air horn. With throttle wide open and choke valve wide open, choker should lock in wide open position. There should be I / 16" clearance between lip on choker lever and top end of fast idle link assembly with choke valve wide open and throttle wide open. Choke mechanism must not bind at any position. Adjustment can be made by removing fast idle link assembly from carbureter and filing not more than 1/32" from top of link. (See General bulletin No. 115.) Care should
be exercised to maintain the contour of original piece and in the removal of all burrs.
METERING ROD ADJUSTMENT: (41IS-4175-4375-4385) Correct setting of metering rod is important. Metering rod position should be checked when carbureters are serviced or when leaner than standard rods are installed. Correct procedure is as follows: Insert gauge No. T109-25 in place of metering rod, seating tapered end in metering rod jet. Then push down piston link so that metering rod pin rests on shoulder of notch in gauge. Adjust lip on piston link so that there is less than .005" clearance between it and pump arm.
Remove gauge, install metering rod and disk and metering rod spring. Be sure metering rod is in jet. If metering rod shows wear, replace it.
It is very important that the vacuum piston move freely and the spring under piston be of proper length. It is best to change this spring whenever carbureter is repaired. Care must be taken that piston is clean and dry and shows no sign of wear. Never use oil to make piston work smoothly. (ADJUST OTHER MODELS BY BENDING THROTTLE CONNECTOR ROD AT LOWER ANGLE.)
