I am planning on taking the jets out and cleaning them as well as as many passages as I can, and also replacing the float bowl screws with allen wrench screws so they don't strip so easy. Currently my bike wont idle on it's own, I have to constantly hold the throttle to keep it running even when it's warm. I've already tried just to take the float bowls off and clean the jets but I stripped a couple screws because they're so inaccessible, so i'm just going to take the whole assembly off and do it that way. Thanks for your help

You will need to remove the seat, sidepanels, gas tank, and anything else in your way. Loosen the airbox so you can slide it back out of the way, loosen the hose clamps and remove the Y-tubes between the airbox and the carbs. Next is your choice, some loosen the clamps and gently yet firmly pry the carbs loose from the intake, others loosen the 8 allen screws and remove the intake along with the carb unit. I prefer the latter, I modified an allen wrench with my bench grinder and can get to all of the allen screws this way. Reinstallation is basically reversing the process. The Y-tubes are sometimes stubborn and need to be coerced with a heat gun or blow dryer to make them maleable enough to get back on. The question is what are you going to do once you get them off? Others on this list can give you better advice for that or a quick search of the archives. -Kyle On Sat, Jul 18, 2009 at 12:00 AM, Weston <[email protected]> wrote: >>I need some advice on how to remove and reinstall a 1984 Honda >>Nighthawk CB650SC four carb setup.
