| This is from an [[http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?t=30748|XLForum thread]]: chrishajer wrote - CBAS5 and I were talking about what it should sound like, good, and we filmed that one. Then he said "you know, we should show a bad one too" so we did that. I think the [vacuum] sound and the speed that the slide comes down are the two most important things. Those things you can't describe to someone really. I can't anyway. But it's absolutely the best way to verify that the diaphragm is seated properly. | This is from an [[http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?t=30748|XLForum thread]]: chrishajer wrote - CBAS5 and I were talking about what it should sound like, good, and we filmed that one.

| - | At this point, we need the engine to be warmed up to normal operating temperature to continue tuning the carb. A cold engine may operate quite differently once warmed up, therefore, tuning the carb while the engine is cold is not valid. Since we set the idle screw very low, you may need to use the throttle or enrichener to keep the bike running... | + | At this point, we need the engine to be warmed up to normal operating temperature to continue tuning the carb.

| - | Start the engine and use the enrichener for the first 1-3 minutes while you take the bike for a 10-15 minute ride to warm the engine fully. Then be careful of the burn potential while working around a hot engine. Make sure you have no intake leaks in the manifold seals by using an unlit propane torch to flow propane around those seals. The engine idle will alter if an intake leak allows propane into the manifold. | + | Start the engine and use the enrichener if the engine is cold, for the first minute or so, while you take the bike for a 10-15 minute ride to warm the engine fully.
