Prairiehammer Posted April 25, 2013 Share #26 Posted April 25, 2013 Wait! Mike, that PN is for Pilot Air Jet 2. Larry, you wanted Pilot Air Jet 1, correct? Are you missing the jet visible looking down the throat of the carb or the jet inside the diaphragm? The picture (shotgun9) looking at the carb after removing the diaphragm shows three arrows with the green arrow #3 pointing at Pilot Air Jet 2. The picture (shotgun10) looking down the throat of the carb shows the green arrow (not numbered) pointing at Pilot Air Jet 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abusive throttle cranker Posted April 25, 2013 Author Share #27 Posted April 25, 2013 I am missing Pilot Air #1. The one showing in the carb throat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prairiehammer Posted April 25, 2013 Share #28 Posted April 25, 2013 I am missing Pilot Air #1. The one showing in the carb throat. Wouldn't you know it... Pilot Air Jet #1 is not shown on the Venture carburetor fiche. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abusive throttle cranker Posted April 25, 2013 Author Share #29 Posted April 25, 2013 Which site have you been looking at? Perhaps others are better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaggletooth Posted April 25, 2013 Share #30 Posted April 25, 2013 I'm digging here. I see the parts in the carb. I see them in the diagrams. I'm not sure I'm seeing the right thing or even under that name in the parts breakdown I have. I see the part# 14 3G2-14231-16-00 . JET, MAIN #80 (#80) in the throat as MAIN JET but I'm not seeing a Air Pilot #1 Jet in parts. Only in flow diagram. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaggletooth Posted April 25, 2013 Share #31 Posted April 25, 2013 Been down looking at my spare carbs. I have the larger jet with the screw head showing at the top. The other smaller jet is deeper seated into the body and I can not see that it is removable. No groove for a screwdriver nor any sign of threading. Our '84 & '91 appear to be the same construction but I have no info available on VMAX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prairiehammer Posted April 25, 2013 Share #32 Posted April 25, 2013 So, is it safe to assume that the only removable jet at the top of the carb is the Pilot Air Jet #1, erroneously called "Jet, Main 80" (#14) on the microfiche? Part number 3G2-14231-16-00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abusive throttle cranker Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share #33 Posted April 26, 2013 My bike is a '91 VR. The VMax site just happened to be what I was looking at when I picked up on this. I'm gonna look at some parts fiche views myself. I also need an idle adjustment screw and spring which I already discovered is not available at Chaparral. Maybe I'll give this Ron Ayers a shot.

Part number 3G2-14231-16-00 That's right and formally, it's not an Error. These Style of Jets are commonly used Main Jets from Mikuni, thus the Text is not wrong.

Snaggletooth Posted April 26, 2013 Share #36 Posted April 26, 2013 Hi Squeeze. So the "jets" marked in blue, refered to as "bleed" jets and non removable and non replaceable if damaged then, correct. For future reference. Thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeeze Posted April 26, 2013 Share #37 Posted April 26, 2013 Yes Sir, that's correct. The blue ones are fixed. The green Circles shown the PAJ#1, which is removable. Vmax is a #90 there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abusive throttle cranker Posted April 27, 2013 Author Share #38 Posted April 27, 2013 I have a #80 on order from Ron Ayer. Found 3 in the bottom of a box of 'other stuff' given me by the PO. These 3 are #80 and the one depicted in the microfiche is also #80. Still can't find a source for an idle adjustment screw and spring. At least now maybe it will run!

abusive throttle cranker Posted April 27, 2013 Author Share #44 Posted April 27, 2013 Thanks for the heads up for Partshark. I have them on my favorites but their price was higher on the jet and they didn't have the side panel tab I've been looking for. Or I can't find it in the fiche or parts list.

Squeeze Posted April 28, 2013 Share #45 Posted April 28, 2013 Since they all rely on the same Parts Data, you'll find what you look for if you have the Parts# and punch it into the search Field at the center of the Page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abusive throttle cranker Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share #46 Posted May 13, 2013 Well I finally received the #80 Pilot Air jet from Ron Ayers. 2 weeks it took! Wow! I put it in and it ran alright. A little miss but not too bad. I have now put some clear tubing on the drain outlet nipples (not #4- nipple broken off) and #1 has a high level in the float bowl. But I ran 22 miles and it got hot. Seriously hot! I had to run the coolant fan- at it was only 85* out! Pulled the plugs- its running lean. Only 22 miles and I can already see the white dusting on the plugs. So I pulled one of the CV sliders. Question- does that little washer go above or below the clip on the needle? It was above- thus allowing the needle to protrude further into the jet. I suspect the PO was in there and reassembled it incorrectly. Thus causing this lean condition. The carbs were off the bike when I bought it.

abusive throttle cranker Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share #47 Posted May 13, 2013 I found this thread which does answer some questions. But........I'm running lean with the stock setup? And you guys are lowering the needle from there??? I feel I am missing something..... http://venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=28432&highlight=needle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
