84 340 Enticer question.

[dooitorbust]

Hey all, I'm new to the Yami forum and had a couple questions.

I'm looking at picking up a 340 enticer to tow my kids around and ride with this winter and the ad says it runs but it idles high. Anything I've read in the forums says I'm better off to dump the stock carb and go with a 36mm Mikuni round slide.

Is there much involved other then switching them out? I'm probably gonna take the stock carb apart and clean it thoroughly and try that before I do anything. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

You could turn down the idle a bit.

Leave it stock. Just clean the carb. They are super simple as is the whole machine. Bullet proof fun sleds.

There's a novel idea, eh? I'll have to try that first.

Hope it works out. A buddy of mine is going to check it out (it's 4 hours south of me) within a week. I had a 440 exciter as a kid and it was just that. Bullet proof and fun!

Like opsled said, they are very simple so there's no need to make changes. Try turning down the idle a tad and clean the carb. It should run fine if everything else checks out.

But I would definitely start with the idle...

Well it would help if the seller would answer his phone or email. Lost cause at this point.
