Description
The carburetor should be cleaned from time to time in order to avoid blocking the jets and passages. For this purpose, it is preferable to use compressed air. Never use wire for cleaning the jets. Also check periodically for the lightness of flange securing nuts, starter fixing screws, main jet, and pilot jet. Make sure that there is no side play in the throttle spindle.
