Agility 50 / Re: Tickover all over the place
« on: April 17, 2010, 10:57:27 PM »
I read the agility workshop manual I had downloaded and found a section stating the speed reduced one has an 80 jet and the unrestricted one runs an 82, I wish i had read this before, after i fixed my needle i had to solder my jet and drill to 82.

But i must say its running spot on now i even maneged 50mph downhill today, thats what i call a result, it nearly keeps up with our peugeot trekker 2 stroke now.

I think ive sussed it, the needle was loose because someone had put a washer under it to richen it up. Ive put it all back to stock but the locking plastic cap had been forced with the washer under so it was loose..I put a tiny bit of epoxy putty on the top of the needle and locked it down when it was nearly set, then waited for it to set up and put it back.

It seems good now.

Checked the valve clearnces today and they seemed to be a bit tight, I only had a 0.05 feeler so I set it to that but so it was a little tight to get in and out.

Also found my set of little drills for pcb and was going to drill my 80 out to an 82 but found the drill would already fit in the jet so I went out to an 85 which just took a little push while spinning it and it was through.

Seems to run lovely now very quiet and ticks over at very low revs very steady.

I didnt take it for much of a run but it seemed ok a bit sluggish on choke but got more powerful as it warmed, I had the feeling it liked what i had done to it.

ok with everything being stock how large of a main jet should i anticipate?

and on an older post i saw something about another line the needs a filter if you remove the stock air box if there is can someone post pics?

Mine had a K+N it had an 88 jet and a washer under the needle, I put it back to stock but thats how it was.

Agility 50 / MOT today guys
« on: April 12, 2010, 03:37:41 PM »
my agility passed its mot today, for you guys over the pond thats a roadworthyness test we have to put all our vehicles in for when there over 3 years old.

It had a slight weep on the fork leg thats all.

I did notice that idle was all over the place but other than that i got 45mph out of her and 40 on the slight inclines which isnt bed to be honest.

She is ever so slightly lean as i still have the 80 jet in her (the 88 was jsut too rich) but other than that shes good to go. What size jet should i go for next? is it worth tryin an 82 or just go for an 84?

« on: April 07, 2010, 11:12:56 PM »
The spring alters how fast the sliders rise and fall, it there too strong they will stall the bike after shutting the throttle down, too weak and the motor will rev on by itself for a few seconds.

On big bikes the more expensive carb tuning kits come with new springs to adjust the rate of opening and closing its a fine art.

Agility 50 / Re: problem with fuel gauge
« on: April 06, 2010, 11:45:04 PM »
I recon (with the ignition on) you can just take the sensor out of the tank and move it with your hand to see if the gauge works, if not ground one of the wires and the gauge should read full..if not the gauge or wiring is faulty if so the sender is faulty. There very simple things.

Thats great just what i needed in case my 88 is too rich..I can drill out my 80.. :)

Oh and i see the pattern its just the size of the hole in mm so a 105 jet is just 1.05mm, I thought it was some weird and wonderful system.  ::)

You are going to have to take it off and check everything is still tight in there before it chews the cranks splines up or worse if you can get any worse... ;)

Do you guys know what size drill gives what size jet, I have a stock 80 jet and its a shame because i could use it if i knew how to make it say an 84 or 86 but i dont know what size drill to use. maybe one of you have made some kind of chart on what size jet is what size drill?   :)
