carb pinch help. - kevinF - 02-13-2006
I have a trx 2.5 engine and I put my carb in and went to turn the bolt on the carb pinch and it wouldnt tighten at all. I could turn the carb so easily.
I took it out to check and see if it was stripped but it was fine..... so please help.
I think ill take it to leisures tomorrow and see but if you guys have any idea please let me know.
thanks

nevermind got that fixed.
but I have a o.s. carb on my trx 2.5 engine and the temps will only hit 190 top and thats with aluminum foil on it.
is that a good temp?

190 is too cold! The 2.5 will run like a dream in the 260 area. Sounds like it's time to lean it out a but.
Hows the performance? Is it sluggish?

well its not with the stock carb. it is leaned out and it is a little sluggish but not much.

Doesn't matter what carb is on there. Temps should always be over 200. A 2.5 likes to run a tad hot. I used to run mine at 270 and it screamed and had good smoke.
