Got my carb on EBay. Pulled out the drain pipe And shortened it on a sanding wheel, tapped in back into the carb and no more clearance problem. One kick start.
I had very similar results with mine. I have the same carb. Did trim the overflow pipe too. I had to set my needle to the highest groove (lowest position), but other than that, she's a runner. Named it DREAMSICLE. It's orange.
I could certainly use this carb for my 75 CT90 which is now in rehab. Unfortunately it is no longer available from AMZN and I cannot find another with the same specs....Appreciated your rebuild video and am working with that.
Jim Morton I had the exact same thing happen on a 76 CT90. Put the new carb on. Had adjusted the points and at WOT it will bog every single time. I am in Idaho at 4200 feet but definitely frustrating experience.
That style of manger is often stamped on the underside so you might have to remove it to see. I know I’m late to the party but you don’t want it to be too lean. Completely stock it should be somewhere around 75 and 65 is too lean.
Will this carb fit a 72 CT90? Since the carb you recommend is currently unavailable, do you think it’s worth a gamble on one of the other Chinese carbs available on Amazon?
Great review. So can you tell me where you got that carb, and any specific number needed to order the same one that you did? I need one for my 71 CT90. Thanks.
Dratv has some on website. Good ones not from China think there about $50. I also have a 71 and the stock jet size is wrong. I believe there was even a recall on it. So if your main jet is 65 it’s wrong. Should be something like 75. A65 main jet will burn your Engine.
Great vid. I've been thinking of buying a new carb for my ST90. I have the high idle issue and I have solved all air leaks except near the base of the carb. Had new rebuild kit with new gaskets. Still an air leak. I'm wondering if I have a crack in the carb somewhere. I'm also wondering if my high idle issue is caused by something else.
A bowl gasket leak won't cause high idle. Make sure you have free play in your throttle so it's closing all the way. Does your bike return to idle quickly or slowly. If slowly, go to the next richest pilot jet or try adjusting the mixture screw a bit richer. If you're turning your idle all the way down and it's still high, your slide isn't closing all the way. Hope those tips help. Thanks for watching. I have 3 CT90's coming in for repairs/service next month.
Great video. Thank you. Do you know where I get replacement or different size jets? I bought one as a spare and when I cleaned it noticed one of the jets is clogged from the factory.
Just installed this carb on my ct90. Its leaking gas from the bottom overflow when in the on or reserve position. Any idea what I have done wrong? Thanks for the great video!
Thanh you for doing this helpful video, I have a CT 90 trail bike and need a new carb. Where did you find yours? I see on mine the bolts to the intake are not directly horizontal but slightly off set which allows the carb to sit horizontal or straight. Is that how your carb was ?
Thank you sir. I have a new Chinese carb on my ct 110 (1982). I've got good compression, taken top end off, had valves leak tested and the rings while original seem to hold air under leak down (in other words I highly doubt internal engine problems). Tuned and re-tuned the carb and it runs great but only through mid throttle. Tried every clip position on the pin (it came to me at position 3- moved it to five and it ran poorly- I find position 2 is the best). Very responsive throttle, great starting. Even though the carb has less than 100 miles I did a cleaning (not rebuild) however I did NOT check or adjust float level. I am not confident that I can measure level with a caliper/rule so i will check with the clear tube method. Do I sound like I am on a logical path here to determine why under heavy load AND/OR WOT it bogs, spits--If I apply manual choke under those circumstances it almost kills the bike. I welcome any and all's advice. Thanks for the great videos. Subscribing now. Jim
Try removing the advance mechanism and cleaning/lubing. Also check for intake obstruction (remove filter and test ride). I found a silica pack in my pod filter and had same prob. Other than that, do the timing and set the points to spec. This assumes the main jet is clean cause it's new.
Today I solve a long going problem. I've stressed over my carb no doing good after 35 mph except down hill , today I drilled holes in my gas cap and that fixed it. My bike now gos 45+ more down hill "I can live with that" What I learned was it was creating vacuum in the tank and sucking air through the gas line going into the carb at the carb under the clamp. My cap had a very small hole on one side and two the same small size on the other, I drilled two on each side approximately the size of #2 pencil lead , I did get a little splash of gas out of those holes but my tank was completely full at that test drive time. Maybe this can help with someone else mystery. I wish I could send pictures.
You know where i can find the 1/4" black plastic looking gasket against the carburetor? Mine is split and broken chunk missing at the bolt. I need this carb and gasket. Thx for sharing! 👍👀
All the carburetors I've ordered have all had the bolt holes to wide, the bolt holes on my intake tube are 2 3/4 in. Wide at center. The new carbs bolt holes are all 2 7/8 inches apart at center. All the new carbs say their for a 1969 ct90 k1 which is what I believe I have, all that being said I'm wondering if I need to just rebuild the original carburetor. HELP!.
Awesome video! Also do you think this aftermarket carburetor would work with a 1967 model? The intake is vertical facing up and down instead of horizontal fore and aft like the 70s models. Not sure if this would mess up the float operation.
@Hannah Chebeleu This aftermarket carb didn't work for the 67. Sadly it is still in storage as I'm having a hard time finding a rebuild kit or replacement for it. Honda only used that particular Keihin carb on 64 through 68 year models then switched when they re-positioned the intake port in the cylinder.
Buyer beware, the Chinese carburetor will not fit a 1969 ct90 k1. The bolt holes do not line up, I have already tried two different carburetors from different suppliers and neather one worked. Also most new carbs for the ct has the overflow come straight down, which also creates a problem with trying to attach them. You can pretty much find carburetors for the ct except for the 1969ct90 k1.
Good informing video. I'd like too see more ventilation in your shop for your sake though :) perhaps a hose on the exhaust out the window at least. Happy trails.
@@danksoulsguru5281 So if you look at others, they have different slide caps. Look for one with the same top slide cap. No guarantees but I would bet they are the same.

Carb is currently unavailable from Amazon, could be Covid related shipping problems.
Does anyone have the measurements for the distance between the bolt holes on the manifold side and the inside diameter for that side?

The float might be stuck, just tap the side of the bowl with the back of a screwdriver to free it up. Sometimes it happens from carbs sitting.

Sounds like your main jet is to rich. Lean your main jet a few sizes an see what it does.
Try removing the advance mechanism and cleaning/lubing. Also check for intake obstruction (remove filter and test ride). I found a silica pack in my pod filter and had same prob. Other than that, do the timing and set the points to spec. This assumes the main jet is clean cause it's new.
@@broadwayFan28 Will do thanks. And I have electronic ignition so I do not have points, correct? I need to check my manual
Correct, you do not have points.
Carb size: Measure INSIDE throat diameter using opposite end of caliper, no? (31mm)
Yes, inside the engine side of the carb.
@@TepcoCycleRepair thank you Sir
I have a cm91 with carb problems. what is the distance between the studs on this carb? centre to centre
I don't have one now to measure. I believe some of the Amazon and eBay listings show the measurements you're looking for.

I wonder if it's just a different intake manifold between the two years?
The 69 was a one year only design, alot of hard to find parts.
A spacer under the intake tube would have rased the carb no?
Yes, but that pipe is just an overflow pipe so easier just to cut it.
The link for model # is not visible. Please notify where I can buy it and the model # if possible. Thanks
Try the link in the description again, I just tried it and it worked and said 9 left. Thanks for watching.
think this would be a good choice for my 1982 ct110?
Yes, it seems they are getting hard to find.
Chalk one up for Chinese.👍
Awesome video! Also do you think this aftermarket carburetor would work with a 1967 model? The intake is vertical facing up and down instead of horizontal fore and aft like the 70s models. Not sure if this would mess up the float operation.
The carb has to be upright so it depends on the intake manifold.

I dont know if you can help me with that question, would that fit to replace my 1967 C90?
And Yest it is a 1967. been in a barn 40+ years and 6 in my garage waiting for me to finally decide to "fix" it
Same here. I have a 68
I purchased this carburetor. It never ran properly. So for me it was a total waste of money.
That carburetor will not fit a 1969 ct90 k1
Thanks, what's the difference in the 69 that won't let it fit?
The intake manifold. You'll need to get the newer K2 and up intake manifold.
Just found out it doesn’t fit a 69.

Impossible china doesn't fit agsinst Japanese or Taiwan built
