Keyster Carb Kit Common Issues - Wrong Jets and Needle

Post by mcmig » Fri Jul 10, 2015 12:08 pm

My carb was fooling the plugs and not running on idle without Choke since it was rebuilt.

My issues was the Keyster Carb Kit, wrong Main Jet #130, Slow Jet # 40, and needle. However the Slow Jet holes were minuscule compared to the stock one.

Stock set up is Main Jet #120 Slow Jet #35

I've put back the old jets and needle and it works fine now.

I should've search about the Keyster kit on this site first, it would of save me a lot of time and troubles.

I just wanted to post a reminder of these issues with the Keyster Kit.

The Keyster kits for the CB77 carb can be used and works well with both CB77 and CL77. ............lm

Not thst I've ever seen.
Fortunately most still have the original HONDA parts so all that is need is good cleaning and a couple of rubber parts. ................lm
