OK, I'm still having a problem here with this supposed leaning out in the mid-range stuff. Basically HOW? If this power jet works just like the Dial-a-jet, once it comes on line and starts flowing fuel, it stays on line until the air flow thru the carb drops below the level required to pull fuel th...

The power jet on my OKO works just like a dial-a-jet. Vacuum from ahead of the trottle plate pulls in fuel via the power jet directly from the fuel bowl. I dont see how this would lean out the mid-range in any way.

Wheelman,

I have a OKO 24 with power jet you can borrow to see if you can get your bike tuned well with it- just let me know and I'll send it out.

What type of transmission does that thing have? (looks like centrifugal clutch but?)

I admit, I don't own a 150. I've rebuilt one for a friend and it did alright. The setup is similar to a CH80, though. I set mine up by Honda-san's procedure for cam timing, but I did run the exhaust valve at 0.6mm instead of 0.5mm (bit too tappy at 0.7mm) to keep the valve from tightening up too mu...

I'd look here first: http://www.hondaspree.net/other/Elite_CH150-H_Service_Manual_85-86.pdf Section 6, page 14. Sets up similarly to a CH80 Elite. There's a mark on the flywheel and on the cam. Once those are set, install the cam chain tensioner and set the valve lash. Won't work. Trust me been the...

I do it by feel with the engine running- Get it started and loosen one adjuster and simply move the adjuster until the valve stops ticking (use a tiny bit of pressure) and tighten up the adjuster. Then do the opposite valve. I wouldn't worry about what each graduation is. See: HTTP://www.ch250.net/t...

Guys, There is a single layer of packing in the PG Long- I cut my used one open to see if it would be feasible to modify it to help knock some of the sound volume down. Right near the very back of the pipe there is an inner perforated core and a single layer of fiberglass packing (about 1/8" th...

Greetings; There should be a little white plastic "spider" that came with the carb. Once the cable end ("aglet") engages the keyhole, the spider slides over it and one "Leg" keeps the cable from sliding over to the wide part of the keyhole. I saw a Mikuni diagram somew...

Please help, Maybe I'm a little retarded but I bought a flatslide cable to hook up my mikuni and I honestly can't figure out how to connected the cable- it has a small ball and an elongated slot that the ball fits through but it keeps comming out. I'm I missing something? Is there a diagram somewher...

Awesome,

Thanks for the answers. First hand experience is always best.

This is primarily directed at Bakaracer as I know he is currently running a watercooled setup but I am looking for any experiences with the WC setups Ebay currently has WC kits for sale that look pretty interesting. How do they run? What are the advantages? Are the temps more stable? Do you have to ...

Whoops- my bad. I thought the af16's started in 94.
