Motorcycle Repair: Carb Settings?, honda xr70r, carb settings


Question
Hi, I have a 1998 Honda XR70R and it does not crank. Someone told me that the carburator was not adjusted right. Do you know what I need to do?

Answer
Hi Brad,

From the limited information given, the source of the problem is difficult to diagnose accurately.

FYI.... The carburetor's settings do not prevent the engine from cranking.

I recommend you obtain the service/repair manual and perform the troubleshooting procedures. The manual has carburetor settings and other specifications you'll need to learn and know to maintain your XR.
