Carburetor Slide

Post by Mrburnn » Sun Jan 07, 2018 12:04 pm

Good afternoon everyone, enjoying winter? It was a cool +1 degree this morning here in sunny Carlisle PA!

I am getting around to cleaning the carburetors of my '67 CL77 and have found that I am missing the right slide. Anyone know where I might purchase one? I think I have all the other necessary parts.

On a related note, my cylinders have been bored to +.75 mm. The jets in the carburetors are #38 slow and #120 main. Are these the proper jets for the .75 over bore?

Thanks!

Rather expensive, this one......

0.75 overbore should have little effect on carburetor

Hi G-Man,

Sorry, perhaps I used the wrong terminology. I am missing the slide (door / window / whatever it is called) that moves up and down by use of the choke linkage to choke the engine. It is not given a part number or name in my parts list.

Thanks again,
MrBurnn

I may have one (here in the UK) if you can't get one closer to home.

I have the parts you are missing.
I use 135 and 42 jets and a CB77 needle for the CL77 engines I restore or tune. ..................lm
