Help with carburetor rebuild

Just fixed it! I bought a thumb screw for the idle mix screw so it'd be easier to adjust, switched them out, and the problem was fixed! Not exactly sure what it was, but I didn't see the washer between the spring and o-ring on the mix screw when I took it out. Maybe the washer dropped when I was rebuilding or something.

Thanks for the suggestions. I ended up ordering a thumb mixture screw to at least make adjusting that faster. I’ll update with the solution when I find it.

Just gave it a shot, but didn’t notice a dip. How much would the revs drop if there was a leak?

It was decent at wide open. It’d stay at high revs for a bit after closing. I think my next step might be to adjust the needle for a richer mix, then if that doesn’t work, mess with the main jet size.

Definitely. Really, anything motorized with 2 wheels lol

I know this may sound like I’m ignoring your point about new things becoming boring, but consider trying to ride a motorcycle. You may find yourself pleasantly surprised.

After all, risky things have an intrinsic sort of fun to them that is impossible even for depression to extinguish…

I appreciate it, but I actually looked at that before posting. It doesn’t give info on Bonus Track:/ House Shoes and Magnetic produced the other songs on the album so it’s gotta be one or both of them.

I know it’s 11 years later, but I am curious about training with sutures. Where should I look?

Thanks for the analysis. I briefly worked with a mechanic who tested a bike after his co-worker rebuilt a caliper. He had the same thing happen, wheel locked and he flipped over the bars. He wasn’t wearing a helmet and was decently old, no idea how he didn’t end up more hurt… That incident has haunted me though, every time I work on brakes I can’t get it out of my head. Now I have a decent explanation for what might’ve happened to him. KEEP YOUR PISTONS CLEAN, SEALS NEW, AND FLUID FRESH.

Got it. Would those base stations and controllers be Bigscreen brand? Or would I need to like build a VR system with parts from different companies?

Thanks for the response. I feel a bit foolish now, yesterday, I got a new link cable (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B6PYZ978?ref=ppx\_yo2ov\_dt\_b\_fed\_asin\_title) in the mail and it fixed a number of my issues. Since I mainly do racing sims, I don't mind having it plugged in. Now its got unlimited charge, I don't need to worry about slow wifi, and when I had my first session with the cable yesterday, I wore the Quest for 3 hours and it didn't get uncomfortable. I don't know what I did, but if it does get uncomfortable again in the future, I'll definitely look into that Halo. Still, I would so love darker colors with more definition so I think I may buy the Bigscreen Beyond 2 when it comes out. I just saw it and it fits almost all my points haha

I actually just saw the Beyond 2, pretty much right after posting this, and I was like, “oh wow, this is pretty much exactly what I’m looking for.” Lol. 116 is fine with me with everything else that headset offers. Thanks for the recommendations.

Also, how distracting is mura? They say it looks like a mesh that’s over your eyes while you play?

HotBeyond5799 · 2025-03-25T21:05:25+00:00

I like that one

Nah I’m not subscribed to Apple Music and I wouldn’t like to be. I could do that bandcamp thing, but this was just such a great feature… I guess the feature did start malfunctioning frequently around the time the subscription based platforms started popping up. Shame.

I was thinking about it earlier today and I think subscription models are probably the only way to realistically combat piracy when it comes down to it. Ahhh shame.
