I'll start from the begining:
1886 Honda 350X. Given to me by a close friend. Sat for a few years. Fuel is bad.
I pulled the tank off (plastic) and drained it. Put fresh fuel in it.
I pulled off the carb, disassembled it, cleaned it, and reassembled it. Some varnish, not too bad. No corrosion.
Started up on the first kick, and ran OK. After it warms up, the RPM's rise and fall. It stalls sometimes, but actually runs good when you ride it. I think something may still be plugged up, but I'm not sure what passageway or jet causes the idle issue.
So, all you carb guys feel free to school me a little. I'm not a genious when it comes to carburation, but I'm not a dummy either. Thanks! :D
