Problems with firing the engine

daniel · Jun 5, 2006

Hi,
I have a husaberg 600 fc 99, after longer rides there are problems with firing the engine and the spark is black. what is more when I riding down on a gear but without adding power the exhaust is shooting.
There is a screw in a which is responsible for making a mixture of fuel an air, the question is how much this screw should be open(I was told that one and half cycle)?

hello daniel

it's known that the dell orto carb wears out. the more it wears the richer it runs. bikes need to be quite lean to restart and so you have the answer to your problem i think!

try and renew the emulsion tube and needle.

also do all the usual things such as check the float is even, it's height, blow out all holes.

you can check your atomiser/emulsion tube visually by holding it to the light in the garage. it will look oval if worn. your bike is a '99 so it may be time!

good luck

hey Taffy,I was surprised to hear I need to be leaner for e-start,just wondering what you might recomend for a starting point,My98fe 600 runs pretty well except wont start on the button,went through the whole carb and changed the needlek51,dr272needle jet,42 pilot jet,45 start jet and a 180 mainjet.it usually starts first kick hot,third kick cold.I had a 38 pilot in for awhile couldnt notice much difference except seemed to run a little hot.

again you have the answer in front of you! the 38 pilot jet.

it's a fact of life that a rich bike has a combustion temp of 500d whilst the correct temp is 800d and lean is 1300d. so you can expect a slight rise in temp. so what?
