  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

125-200cc float height....

Husqvarna
AA Class
TMX 38mm on a 2010 wr 125. What is the float height and how is the measurement made.

My USB stick manual sucks A$$. What is "g 6,1" is that float height and what kind of measurement is it?

Please help. I can't find the info in the sticky area otherwise I would not be pestering!

Thanks, Tommy
 
Measurements are normally from carb base to the to lowest part of float.
tang resting on the plunger of the needle, not depressing it
i dont think Id touch it - try asking your local dealer ?
what was the issue you were having again ?
 
Sorry if its about the cackle
Have you tried a adjusting needle position to reduce cackle?
maybe its just normal - give throttle a twist and that'll fix it
 
I think the 6g is weight of float
is it fouling plugs?
I found this for WR 250 on Thumpertalk -

From Mukuni rep....check float with carb at 45 degress not to compress spring and a TMX38-2, or -5 that is 6-7mm height where the other TMX/TMS carbs are 18-22mm height from base of carb.

My 02 WR250 was fouling plugs like crazy...went down to 25 pilot with no real effect & had to go out 2.5-3 turns. Checked my float...was 14mm....adjusted to 20mm and now I have gone back to a 30 pilot with 1.5 turns out. Float height makes a difference--plus no overflow while bike is sitting which was a pain.
 
yeah. Thats what my issue was. fuel leaking out of carb whilst on kicking stand.How do I know if my carb is a -2 or -5?

RD; my float height was way off. Heading to 4000' this weekend to expect a smoother power delivery on the bottom end. Without the pilot jets that I need, it may still cackle a bit, but I'm sure the adjustment is going to have me gigglin' in me helmet!

Cheers, Tommy:canada:
