I ended up having to mount my 19mm Delorto carb at a slight angle (Maybe like a 20 to 30 degree) Anyways would this prove problematic?
Angle of carb?
Re: Angle of carb?
Guess I'll just try it.
Re: Angle of carb?
I've got mine at a similar angle cause of my reed valve intake.
Re: Angle of carb?
Does it run weird?
Re: Angle of carb?
i think i actually read it can be 40* off its central axis. of course i cant find the manual i read that out of... and i cant remember exactly what it said. ive never run a carb at a crazy angle like that, but i have seen some pictures of setups like that and they apparently run fine.
Re: Angle of carb?
fact.
Re: Angle of carb?
Cool. I was afraid that since the float works upon boyancy I was screwed. Thanks guys!
Re: Angle of carb?
Crazy angles are no problem. Just make sure that the float stop is bend out a lil bit, so the float bowl can fill all the way.
Carb angles rule of thumb: If it doesn't leak out of the overflow-hole, you're good to go ;)
Re: Angle of carb?
Thanks guys! The angle is not to drastic so I should be good.

Re: Angle of carb?
Wow. That angle's crazier than mine.
Re: Angle of carb?

Re: Angle of carb?
Haha yeah.
Re: Angle of carb?
My delorto is at a decent angle, still runs just fine:
Re: Angle of carb?
That looks almost identical to my angle Brian. Thanks!
