spigot Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 I need (or rather my mate does) a walbro carb for a solo 210 with manifold adaptor. He currently has a tilston which is complete witchcraft to me . For love nor money cannot tune the bloody thing!. Its as if the high and low needles have been swapped around (not physically possible) Starts fine on factory settings, just unable to dial in any throttle response. Anyone have a spare lying about? or any clues as to why this might happen? Colin B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 You will be able to pick one up from Hungerford chap. 'Hungerford garden machine repair' is owned by Rob who is a paramotor pilot. SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanman Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Manifold adapter? Most diaphragm carbs bolt directly via a gasket onto the reed block. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobra Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 strip it down, put an airline in any hole, rebuild with new gaskets etc will be as good as new G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spigot Posted April 11, 2010 Author Share Posted April 11, 2010 Sorted.... He striped it down again this morning. Apparently the main jet was blocked solid. Airlines are have magical powers Soooo.. he takes it to the industrial estate to tune up. Running better than ever, smooth response. no backfires. And the exhaust falls off I believe he`s now thinking of making his own tuned exhaust if he can find a pattern. Colin B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
