Never rebuilt carbs before, have a bunch of questions if someone can help. 1993 Johnson 115.
Got a pic of a tube that appears broken off in a carb, maybe explains my lean sneeze?
I Swapped carbs with another motor to prove sneeze was carbs--it was. Brought the carbs inside and noticed one of the little tubes broken off on one side (see pic). Not knowing how exactly these carbs work--Could this be the lean sneeze?? Also is this piece replaceable/repairable?
I have the factory manual, and BRP rebuild kits...but it really doesnt spell out what/where the low idle jets are. I want to ensure they are clear but there are alot of "holes", and what appear to be "orafices". They do mention IDLE AIR BLEED ORIFICES....are these the jets? Do I have to remove all these ofafices--or can I just run a wire thru them or clean them, they do seem open/clean.
Last question....do I have to remove that "bb/lead shot" and the round core plugs?
Sorry for all the questions...I wanted to get these done, and try them before the weekend, but dont want to omitt anything.
