Pod Filter to carb help?

BigWillieStyles · Post by **BigWillieStyles** » Fri Nov 10, 2006 1:46 am

Hey ive put a pod filter on my Dio and have blocked of the a/f pipe, is this bad?

Would it be better to get a pod filter that has an A/f connection and reset the ecu?

thanks

Knowing nothing of 2 strokes, you should probably return everything to stock to realize maximum performance and efficiency.

Thanks mate, not everyone is such a negative geek sitting behind there computer looking for a free post.

I'm not a negative geek. I don't made modifications to my vehicles having no idea of what is going to happen to them. Then, when things don't turn out well based on my uneducated modifications, I don't ask for assitance on a public messageboard.

There is nothing wrong with tinkering. Basic knowledge is a solid foundation for more complex understanding. However, freely admitting that you know nothing of two strokes does not imply basic knowledge of the platform.

I was merely suggesting that if you don't know what you are doing, putting the scoot back to stock is going to realize the best performance.

Settle down Beavis.

when i started wirking on these i didnt know anything, i had no basis at all, yea i worked on cars, but they are nothing like these! so thats not even a base! the spree that i got non running last year during spring was a junker, i had no idea what i was doing, and to this date it is the fastet un modyfyed spree out there, all i had was a 84 head on it because i had one laying around and forgot which one was which. now i am an einge wiz, i can fix anthing that has an engine no problem. i know these things inside and out. and did i know what i was doing NO! so let ppl experiment! and as of askign for help on a puplic forum MADE TO HELP PPL! i think he did the right thing consulting us so he has SOME BASIS TO FIND HIS PROBLEM! SINCE THAT IS WHAT THIS SITE IS FOR!

All that being said, should the a/f pipe be blocked?

i'm guessing he means the air filter intake from the airbox?

BigWillieStyles · Post by **BigWillieStyles** » Tue Nov 14, 2006 12:05 am

sorry guys i was just annoyed by that first post.

When i say the A/F pipe, i mean the little tube or attachement that extends from out of the stock airbox. Because if the a/f is blocked wouldnt the engine Cdi still think that the stock box airflow was being taken in but infact more air is getting in. It could therefore not adjust the the amount of fuel, giving unequal portions of air and fuel right?

85stroka · Post by **85stroka** » Tue Nov 14, 2006 12:25 am

the tube needs to be in open air, CDI stands for capacitve discharge igniton, your bike is not fuel injected, or pcm controlled, let the tube hang safely in the open- tie strap to hold in place not to pinch off

BigWillieStyles · Post by **BigWillieStyles** » Fri Nov 17, 2006 1:37 am

ok thanks, but then how does the engine know how to adjust a/f ratios?

It does not, that's why there is a air fuel adjustment on the carb- there's 2 screws on the side one is Idle adjustment ,the other is a/f , a good rule ,is 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 turns out , if you need to go more then 1/2 in either direction change the jet- more out -leaner smaller jet, more in richer -bigger jet ,it's all about tuning
