Yamaha RT100 Carb Rebuild/ Cleaning

[MitchuII]

My 97 Rt100 runs fine until you stop. Whether it's in neutral or the clutch is engaged, the sonofabitch will just rev on it's own to the limit. If I let off the clutch a bit, it'll go back down but sitting still, it goes off the chart. Also, if you take it down the road wide open, it will die suddenly. Only when it's at full speed/ throttle, though.

[11wesley11]

i need help. this guy figured out my yamaha beartracker the slider wasn't moving up when you went full throttle and he fixed it but now when your riding at about 1/2 throttle it suptters and wont go. i looked and the slider doesn't go up the whole way because he put bolts and nuts around the diaphram or however you spell it and its too heavy and i dont know how to fix it helpp

[admillnx6]

i like the way he undoes the main jet with a pair of pliers,he must have apprenticed down my local bike shop.

hi can anyone help me with what i think is a carb problem i own a 2003 yamaha beartracker and its starts and idles no problem its when u give it gas is the problem no matter how little or how much gas u give it it sputters and doesnt want to go at first but when it finally gets there and is reved up its runs fine i think its no getting the right fuel air mixture but idk can someone help?

[admillnx6]

this sounds like a partially blocked main jet and(more likely)main jet holder,make sure their clean and if youre running a aftermarket pipe/filter combination,then return to stock.

[songz15love]

is it ok to use a car carb cleaner on a 2 stroke engine carb?

[FordsRule351]

duh yes you can use it

[AcidBrianS]

what year is your rt? because i have 1 myself

[GOTTshua]

I'm going to have to do this to my baby this winter. Wish I had a spare bike in the meantime.

[JooKed]

Same here, the only reason I'm reluctant to do it now is because I ride to work and don't like it when my bike is just sitting there. Same reason why I don't paint my headers without having the temptation to run the bike without them!

ING DIRECT

[dusAn360]

wats top speed on rt? and has it got good tork ? cos mines going like a piece of shit

[crasymeanbaddog]

[damasterberton]

haha i sea what you did there

[badbassline]

can you post a video on how to set the carb up like air/fuel ratio stating how many turns in or out you need and is there a specific set up for different bikes cheers

[dundas14]

i need a little tip please. my kx100 isnt getting any fuel to the top end i need some help. i cleaned all the jets and i put it back together and there is no fuel getting to the carb can you suggest anything? thanks

[crapgeey]

check the compression if its under 100p si it probally means you need new rings.

[dustinwaller87]

hey i have the same carb.. but the slide wont move.. its stuck any solutions to get it unstuck.. everything else works great on the carb but the slide..??

[atomicsaladbowl]

pb blaster and any penetrating lube, let it sit for a lil while, and put sum pressure on it

[jlowellb]

nice video

[240sxrb25dett]

the frisbees after your dun rebuilding your carb clean it out ang give it back too your kids lol

[Tttp7]

hey good job... i got the same bike its a 1990 yamaha RT100A... its a good reliable bike... got one question is it suppose to leak a little gas now and then?

[randobad]

The frisbee is the best idea ever!!!

[atomicsaladbowl]

damn right!! i clean all my carbs in frisbees, contains the mess

[doffshore1]

@atomicsaladbowl Lol Frisbees your braggin about, haha man I use a nice big clean oil pan works pretty darn good but every body has there special way hahaha and thanks man I just picked up a 1991 rt 100 and rebuilding the carb Is the needle for the float suppose to hang on to the float I found it very weird because all the carbs I usaully do when I pull the float out the needle comes with it... any help appreciated thanks bro

[lazzer408]

1:20 "main jet" that is incorrect. That is the valve seat for the float needle valve.

[atomicsaladbowl]

wow i missed that in editing, thanks you are right

[lazzer408]

yup yup. Main came out at :35. Do you pull the main nozzle from the carb body when you do cleanings? I didn't see it removed.

[lazzer408]

Turn off the auto focus.

[atomicsaladbowl]

the air screw is probably about 2 turns out but you must adjust it and determine the right setting yourself, I do not know what a throttle screw is... if you are talking about the idle screw you must adjust that while the engine is on to make it idle correctly

[heirunapparent]

Hmm, I might wear gloves with that spray myself but this is an excellent video. I will use it for reference.

GEEZ, THREE jets? I'm used to only two circuits on a big carb. I'm clearly missing some 2-stroke theory.

Pliers will work if you are ginger so I've got no beef there.

Thanks for the video Bro.

Give me one on the cylinder rebuild now PLZ.

[atomicsaladbowl]

actually i have been considering doing that, i will let ya know if i do

[atomicsaladbowl]

just what i had at the time, didnt ruin or strip the main jet at all, my workbench is a bit of a mess right now

[spacekadet505]

nice now i have something for reference :P

[crapgeey]

sweet carbs are one of the easyest things to upgrade or rebuild!
