Hello all,
I am sorry I enter your thread Hubb, just have a similar question related to air cot off valves in our bikes.
I just gave a proper cleaning and new o-rings to my carbs (with Ivan`s full slip on kit), but I read some old threads related to carbs and found out the air cut off valve should be cleaned or changed too if needed.
And this is my question, just getting the carbs back together, but decided to open and clean up the cut off valves too.
I cleaned them up, but not sure when is the right time to change the diaphragm in them, even they are not damaged or with holes.
The rubber seems to be bit "tired" only, but not torn.
What would you recommend when they should be changed, please?
Just to give more light why I am getting them cleaned. The chokes were stucked and could not move in their holes, the bike were difficult to start in cold and it was running on three cylinders under 3000/3500 rpms.
Thank you in advance and again I am sorry Hubb for jumping into your thread. If this is not ok, I will delete my post then
