Revving stock clone

[freakboy]

umm yeah it would survive without them but if you add em you will get more botom end and it will be a little snappyer throtal responce.

k ya ill look into it! im already gunna be running a comet 40 series so i think that resolves my bottom end issue; are those power bands a universal fit or are they specified for certain engines?

 

[freakboy]

theyre universal just like piston return springs. they go around your flywheel the instructions to mount them are with them when you get them.. but the piston return springs get placed on top of the piston in the center then the other side goes against the head. they help on the power stroke of the engine..

What mods can you do to improve acceleration? That are free!

 

[freakboy]

drill the flywheel which is dangerouse and a idiot move at best.

 

[r_chez_08]

I mean like drilling the jet. Does thAt help acceleration?

 

[Doc Sprocket]

I had a powerband once. Singer drove me f**king loopy, so I quit!

lol

 

[freakboy]

if u drill the jet to big it will make the engine bog the hell down so its not a good idea messin with that unless it runs lean then if u drill the jet to get it right that helps.

drilling the main out is only needed if you are letting the motor breathe more. The low speed jet will help the idle circuit. it will help if you have an off idle stumble. or your engine is hard to start.

MOST clones that have an aftermarket filter ect.. run .036-.038" main. if you decide to drill yours out start with .036" bit then do plug chops and see how its runnin..

Good Luck

i may remove the gov, and get an aftermarket filter like this and drill the jet to .036.
I know it amy sound stupid, but how would you drill a jet? and what is a stock jet?

 

[BriggsTwins]

looks good

 

[Kaptain Krunch]

Dont get one of those knockoff filters.

Get a real Uni pod dual stage filter, much much better.

 

[r_chez_08]

also where would i get such a small bit in the uk?

 

[1992suburban]

its called a PEN vise.. its simple hold the jet in your hand and twist the drill..

 

[freakboy]

i thought it was a pin vise. and i think hes talking about getting the drill bit there called indexing bits and try to find one in standard.. u know the real measurments!

 

[Kaptain Krunch]

Yea i've always called it a pin vice. Check ebay for the right size. You could find one close enough to .036 in metric if needed.

If you cant find what you need on ebay, you could go to a machine shop and ask if they would let you drill out the jet, the worse machinist could stick that jet in a mill and drill it out in under 5 minutes.

 

[r_chez_08]

looks good

What does lol. I will look into filters and jets in a bit, thanks guys.

 

[r_chez_08]

[BriggsTwins]
