I turned off the fuel and was instantly rewarded with a smooth idle all the way down to the stops. With fuel back on running on mag 1 or mag 2 alone resulted in a slight worsening of the problem. I looked first at the floats and got stopped there as the rectangular float is slightly sunk, at least 1/8-3/16 below the other float with the chamfered corners. I went to the spare carb set and found it was equipped only with the rectangular floats, which appear to rub slightly on the cast-in passage in the float bowl. So I can try those, they all appear to float at the right height, with the brass finger right at the gas level. My question is this, did these Bings originally have all rectangular floats, when did they change? Finally is there anything I might have overlooked, although it seems like a rich problem to me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message rotaxengines-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/RotaxEngines-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/rotaxengines-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/rotaxengines-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
