Giday to all. I have a kx 60 which would idle but wouldnt run. Turns out a mouse made a nest in the pipe.Now there is a flat spot just b4 powerband. I was wondering if any of you out there are familiar with the carb air mixture screw? The big screw on the carby seems to me like the idle adjustment, but I cant find any other screws unless there is one in a cavity adjustable by a micro type screwdriver. I have searched the web for hours for a breakdown of the carby but can find nothing.It is a mikuni24?The choke pulls out from the side.the bike is 1996 Any help would be gr8tly app.

i got the same bike and thats the only screw on the carb that i seen. have you changed the plug?

 

oh and welcome to KF

 

Did you mean that screw was the idle adjustment?It has a new plug.Is there a air fuel mixture screw?Theres only a slight flat spot.

 

the bigscrew is the idle adjustment.

 

The silencer at the back had no packing and was extremely loud. For a quick fix I packed it with metal shavings from a lathe. I might pull them out and pack them a bit tighter . This quietened it down and there is still good air flow.Do you know any other info on the carb that might help in the search of the net. The book and exhaust are on order but might take a while

 

ive seen people use regular houseing insulation to pack them with. as far as carb stuff, naw thats all ive had to mess with is the idle screw.

 

The shavings where appox1-2mm and long drawn out like a corkscrew.Thought id say in case anyone else trys this. Thanks for your posts. Great site .
