Pete175 Posted April 18, 2022 Report Share Posted April 18, 2022 Hi guys, I’ve been working hard at restauring a nice ty175B 1975 and after cleaning the carb and changing piston rings, i still can’t get any power after first gear. But if i take off the air filter, I get enough torque to shift and I have great acceleration. What should I do ? I was thiking maybe a mikuni carb fixing kit, new seals and gaskets ?

kurtas Posted April 19, 2022 Report Share Posted April 19, 2022 Have you removed and decoked the entire exhaust system? How much oil have you used in the air filter? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bashplate Posted April 19, 2022 Report Share Posted April 19, 2022 is the little O ring around the main jet in the fuel bowl perished? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbofurball Posted April 19, 2022 Report Share Posted April 19, 2022 Just to add, if the air filter is over-oiled you can fix it by putting it between paper towels and running it over with a rolling pin a lot ... I always feel the urge to use too much oil! (same as with shampoo, washing-up liquid, etc, lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
