Very nice work! What modeling package do you use? The Free version of Fusion right now. I don't love it, however I am not really sure what to expect since I've never had any design education or experience doing this. I also gave Onshape a trial but I felt like it was worse. I might try it again now that I have a handful of hours on Fusion and understand more. |

A little preview, while I had a half hour before dinner last night.  Bolts up fine, and my jet adjustments seemed good, as it start and ran and idled nice right away. The only additional modifications needed were to the cable tube and adjustment knob. The 90-degree cap and tube from the stock Bajaj carburetor fit on the PZ carburetor just fine, but the cable adjustment and threaded portion on the tube were too long, so I cut the tube threaded section by about half, and also cut the brass adjustment collar about half as well. I made a quick adapter out of another cable adjuster I had laying around so that if I go back to the stock carburetor it will fit fine. I should have left the boot off so you could see what was done but it's nothing special. Initial ride shows it's still a little lean at 1/4 throttle, with the next larger pilot jet in it, it would not idle quite right and was very rich at idle, I didn't bother to tune the fuel screw or anything last night so I might be able to tune it out. I also will probably put the stock intake boot and air filter back in, the cone filter is very noisy and not in a good way, lol. That also might be enough to richen up the bottom end. A quick video, it never hot-started this easy on the stock carburetor. Also, I don't have the choke cable hooked up, I'll need to fab a little bracket to hold it since the lever is on the opposite side on the stock carburetor. I have never used the choke on the stock carburetor, so I'm not gonna worry about it right now. I also need new mounting hardware as these bolts (that came with the PZ carburetor) are a little short so I'll fabricate that up when I replace them. More to come soon! |
