Or that may be the same guy at different stages of life. I used to be the third guy and still am when it's beyond me; on this one I came in at guy #1. It's all good.

It ran but pretty rough when cold and would have a mid range stumble when warmed up. I'm a novice on wrenching bikes but with the help I hope to get this Nighthawk running well. I got the carbs off and used a guitar string and compressed air to clean up the jets and hopefully passage ways. Three things to hopefully get help with. #1) Because the tip on the choke plunger to the #1 carb had broken off, if anyone has a spare choke plunger they could sell me that would be appreciated. #2) With the carbs off the bike as pictured below, how easily should the choke shaft move the remaining choke plungers? When I got the bike, I'd turn the choke off but still had to push the #1 choke plunger arm down to completely close all of the choke plungers. My first thoughts were that maybe the choke cable needed to be lubed but even now with the carbs off the bike, that shaft seems to be binding. Lastly, the nighthawks-forum site seems to be down but they had a process to clean/soak carbs in a Pine-Sol solution of 1 part Pine-Sol & 3 parts water. As I understood it, the solution wouldn't damage the rubber rings, gaskets etc. but got rid of the varnish and helped unclog passageways etc. Do I have that right and if anyone used that process, how did it turn out? Again, thanks for any help provided. Tony -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
