My atomizers and bushings came in so I started tinkering. With the 262AU atomizer and bushing there has been some significant changes (I had the 262AN). Ive gone from a 102 to a 92 main and am still stroking at the very top. Its also begging for an idle jet smaller than the 45 in it, probably try a 42 or 35 next. I did go from a w9 to a w3 needle which is richer. They have the same tip diameter and 20mm long taper, but the w3 has a body diameter of 2.45 versus the 2.50 of the w9. I like them more since they have a longer taper than the w7's (20mm versus 18mm). I however discovered a air leak in the base gasket and called it quits for the evening.
Cody worked on his TS185... :( yuck.
Of course some dog wrestling.
Oh, did I mention a $80 derbi?
I'll give you $100 for the derbi.
ReplyDeleteHey how hard was it to change out your atomizer? And if you don't mind, could you tell me how you did it? Haha.
ReplyDelete**atomizer bushing
ReplyDeleteIt was pretty easy. I unthreaded the old atomizer out a few turns and bopped it with a screwdriver handle. Threaded out more, repeat. Finally unthreaded it all the way and tapped it and shot right out. I aligned the new bushing in there with some pliers and used a small socket and extension, using a small hammer to tap it in. You can use the atomizer to pull it all the way in. Its much simpler than it sounds.
ReplyDeleteThanks I really appreciate the info haha that's exactly what I was thinking of doing anyways!
