RD350LC Main air jet inspection

Removing the brass ball (plug) from carb to inspect the main air jet. Sometimes a blocked or dirty main air jet can cause bad air/fuel mixture leading to poor performance.

Another great video - you are literally a week ahead of me in a rebuild and I have to do this next. This is a big help seeing it being done. Thanks!!

[@stephenhawkins9227]

Great video, but don't put the brass ball back in. tap the hole with an M5 thread and put an M5 grub screw in. makes it a lot easier to do it next time.👍👍

[@jh-tech5546]

That is a good idea! Thanks for the tip.

Where can you get new brass balls

[@wiggy92000]

Hi where can I get new brass ball from please

[@jh-tech5546]

Hi, sorry I wouldn't know that. As you can see I have reused them. If you do not drill through them.

[@georgemalkin6546]

How does the air get past the brass ball to the jet?

[@jh-tech5546]

Sorry for the late answer. There is a channel from the float chamber vent channel to the area behind the brass ball. At first I was also wondering.

[@georgemalkin6546]

Cheers for the info 👍

[@hariprasath3666]

Why blocking that main air jet ?? And to clean that pasage and blocked that passage again

[@jh-tech5546]

As it is originally blocked by that ball. Note that it is not blocking the main air jet. It has a source from a passage that comes into that channel.
