Carburetor Adjustment Screws

[memphis]

Hi All,

Please review my picture indicating the adjustment screws and let me know if accurate.

Looking at the Haynes Manual (Pg 77), Fig 3.11 and Fig 3.12 contradict each other in terms of Jet Adjusting & Throttle Stop Screws.

Please let me know if my picture is correct.

Thanks!
Bob

It seems ok except what you call a "Jet adjusting mixture screw" is only the screw that attaches the adjustment screw to its shaft.

OH!!! BY the way why is the vacuum line into that carb cut off????----Keoke

On cue:

Pages nine (9) through twenty-three (23) show the teardown and rebuilding of a set of HD8 carbs; HD6s would be near-identical.

Hi Keoke,

Cut off by the previous owner because the Mallory dis didnt require vacuum.
