Noob trying to learn the basics-82 XS400 HS
Just got my crabs cleaned and things are looking good. I am missing the tiny (1mm x 3mm) O-ring in one of the pilot screws but put it back together until I can get hold of one in the next few days. Its currently idling high/erratic, but I can imagine that is due in large part to the missing o-ring. It will also need to be tuned as I have rebuilt the OEM air filters with Uni-foam with K&M oil and so am likely pulling less air than the OEM oil-less filter...
So, my main question is how do i feed the crab fuel while I am tuning it? Just a tube with a funnel and a bit of fuel going into the carb? Kind of like having it on prime? Or will that give too much fuel?
Also, any advice for tuning the pilot screws? What am i looking for? I won't know where I am till I get that O-ring in, but imagine it will be running a bit rich given the new air filters are likely a tad more restrictive.
Greatly appreciate any advice!
