As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

hello guys,

can someone please tell me how to remove needles in order to change noch. i am kind of confused of how you remove the needle from the throttle valve.


thank you
 
Take the top off the carb & pull the slide out the top. Remove the circlip down inside the Well of the slide with some long circlip pliers & the plastic bit, needle, spring etc will come straight out.

Yours may not have notches if they are emission controlled... you may have to use washers as a shim.

Dan :)
 
as you remove the circlip, push the needle slowly from underneath so you can see the position of all the little bits, should help re-assembly

putting the circlip back in can be a bit of a pita so excercise patience
 
thank you guys,

i allready did that, my prob is how to remove the circlip. do i need a special tool?
and if they dont have scales to raise the needles what can i do?
 
use long nose (internal) circlip pliers

a pair of standard long nose needle pliers should work as well

get the right tool as you're dealing with delicate parts

if you are in the usa - you'll need to use small thin washers to shim the needle
if you are outside of the usa the needle is going to be grooved, with a removable circlip
 
"a pair of standard long nose needle pliers should work as well"

They work fine. I even ground mine down slightly to be more pointed and slightly bent them in towards each other and it works like a charm.
