Top Carburetor Tuning related questions

If you encounter clouds of black smoke from the exhaust, misfiring, overheating, or hard starting, your carburettor might be overdue for a tuning. You can also keep an eye on the check engine light which usually turns on when there’s something wrong.

A minor carburettor tuning typically takes an hour to complete. However, it may take longer depending on your car model, its current parts, the complexity of the adjustments, and the time spent for test driving to check the engine. 

With Airtasker, you can find a nearby carburettor tuning specialist that matches your needs and budget! Our transparent review and rating system can help you book the best Tasker for immediate tuning done from your home, office, or garage.

What do carburettor tuning services include?

Carburettor tuning is critical for any two-cycle or four-cycle vehicle. Careless adjustments can trigger carbon buildup, produce insufficient power, and cause more issues that may damage your car engine in the long run. If your carburettor isn’t properly tuned, your car engine will never live up to its full potential—which is why it’s best to leave it in the hands of a tuning expert!. After discussing your needs, a top-rated Tasker will go to your preferred location and make the following adjustments:

Locating the Carburettor

Before the actual engine tuning, the air filter and housing will be removed to access the carburettor easily. Once exposed, your Tasker will have to look for two of its integral screws: air/fuel mixture screws, which measure and allow fuel and air to enter your engine; and, idle mixture screws, which control the air/fuel mixture but at idle speed.

Engine Assessment

Your car must be running to assess the engine’s condition thoroughly. Over lean means that it’s using too much air but less fuel, while over rich means there’s too much fuel but not enough air.

Air/Fuel & Idle Mixture Screws Tuning

Depending on the condition of your engine, necessary adjustments to the carburettor will be made. The screws will be strengthened if lean; or, they will be loosened if over rich. The Tasker will have to rev up your car after every adjustment with increasing RPMs until the engine is running smoothly with no misfire or vibration. If all is well, the air filter and housing will be reinstalled back onto your carburettor.

Engine Check

You may join your asker to do a quick test drive to make sure that everything’s in place and adjusted accordingly.

Replace battery in Braaap SS2125 and check carby

$150

Coburg North VIC, Australia

25th Jul 2023

I have a Braaap SS125 Motorbike. It's basically brand new < 500km, however I seem to have always had a battery and idle problem. After leaving it over night the electric starter doesn't work, and I have to kick start it. After I do start it, then it doesn't idle and the engine can just stop without keeping the throttle on. Once the bike is warm and ridden for 30 mins or more the electric starter and idling can improve (though still temperamental) After going away on a holiday and coming back, not even the kick starter worked. The job will have to be done at Coburg. I have a new lithium battery I'd like installed, and I think the idling problem might be the carby. Though I've watched many YouTube vidoes, I'd like to get someone who knows what they are doing to help. I also don't know how much is reasonable to quote, so would be happy to hear an appropriate quote. Thanks! - Due date: Flexible

Richard came out to service my bike and he was excellent! The service was very thorough, and he methodically went through each part of my bike until the problem was fixed. He was also very helpful and explained things along the way. Now I have a working bike and feel more confident about how to look after it in the future. Thank you!
