I would recommend to anyone needing to clean a carb fully like this one - an ultrasonic cleaner rather than a wire brush.

Thanks for the video! First time working on a bike in my life and i feel great! Everything went super smoothly because of this so thank you very much!

[@atdi72]

Thanks mate, just about to do this on a 1987 TT225. Big help. :)

[@damecioyonh5554]

🤩 I have no profecional tool, so, loved the trick, with tiny wire 😀, every second of this video is helpful.
Congratulations you better day after day with the video edition.
Thanks.

[@benjik007]

Thank you so much man!!!

[@kevinbock6096]

You don't use a steel brush on carb parts. Brass, better yet soak in carb cleaner..

[@maddenboss3452]

Kevin Bock after studying mechanical engineering at ICUP TECH Institute, I suggest adding music, as it may distract you while you attempt to drive off a cliff

[@AboutaMileAdventures]

hes right though

[@benjaminrideout9893]

It’s a regular tooth brush u idiots

[@jaredbauer3058]

@@benjaminrideout9893 sorry guy - its a wire brush

[@megancorletti2133]

super clean....super clean....super clean....super clean.....

[@maddenboss3452]

Megan Corletti actually the experts from ICUP Tech believe this is actually super dirty.... Super dirty.... Super dirty

Thanks, I need to do this to my ttr225 but I'm scarrrred.

[@patrickwilliams9611]

scared lol don't be a pussie carbs are easy

[@digestingflea4714]

If you have to scrub it I’d recommend using a plastic brush instead ❤

[@RobbiRocks]

Great information and Top bike, just the back ground music is shocking and tad loud

[@ofthehappyplace]

That was much easier than I thought it would be. And I agree the music was annoying

[@nevets5150]

Hey thx for the video! Question - Is the carb on this bike (ttr225) the same as a TTR230?

[@odysseas01]

With a carb so dirty you should take out the emulsion tube, which is retained in place by the main jet. Believe me the emulsion tube will be just as dirty as the float bowl and all it's holes will be clogged. To take it out you have to first take off the top plastic cover of the carb, with the vacuum membrane and slider with needle. Then you just push the emulsion tube out from the bottom.

[@marsarmory6236]

Where does the long black hose that sits above the fuel line inlet on the front of the carb go? I have this same project bike and that hose was already disconnected.

[@ianwalters1794]

Thanks

[@ireneswift4509]

please! No more music!

[@beaujacksonn]

ikr!!

[@jackalfaro8636]

cool

[@nobrizzle]

I wouldn't recommend jamming a screwdriver into the carb like that. You can scrape metal which can come off into the carb or even worse.

[@crazymansoff-roadtoys1211]

Is there a number of turns out on that pilot jet? I just bought one of these.

[@Bengineer-K]

Crazy Man’s Off-Road Toys great question! Both the main and pilot jet are screwed at the way until seated snug. You will be able to adjust the air/fuel ratio externally

[@crazymansoff-roadtoys1211]

Thank you very much

[@blackfox5219]

hey i bought a 2001 ttr225 would carb and choke cleaner work just as well?

[@Bengineer-K]

Most likely! You may still have to scrub components with a brush to remove tougher grime but yes that will work!

[@blackfox5219]

@@Bengineer-K ok thank you! wish me luck on cleaning it
also are there parts on the bike that i would break if i got the whole bike wet to wash with a rag some soap and a hose?

[@barrycasey7389]

Great video and voice over! Music (if you can call it that) was annoying, distracting, and drained my life force. Keep up the good work and consider less distracting music.

[@redetroitwing]

Where do you adjust air/fuel

[@tylerross2968]

It’s gonna be the jet you have in it they should sell kits with a couples jets also if you were to add a new pipe or something like that you’ll also have to mess with it if you do that

[@beaujacksonn]

couldn't concentrate due to music

[@christopherwalsh7700]

Why on earth would there be varnish on any of the components???

[@damianfro4855]

I took it out, and now my cboke doesnt work

[@redetroitwing]

How common is it for a new carb to have the floats stuck? I swapped a new carb on my 225 and it's pouring fuel out the drain line, even tapped on it and cycled turning on the gas to no avail

[@Bengineer-K]

dusty fleissner I’ve seen it before, especially with cheaper carbs, also any carb get knocked around during shipping so that may also be a factor. I would take your bowl off and check that they’re are no missing parts ie your float needle, and if everything is good then use a light oil such as wd40 to oil the pin and make sure everything moves freely. Lastly this is very uncommon but possible, the float was manufactured with a pinhole in it and thus the float will not function as it should, hope this sets you down the right path!

[@dmitriy6275]

I have the same problem on my ttr 225

[@paniccg]

Recommend and edit mentioning the washer under the main jet when disassembling as I didn’t realize it was there, lost it and now am dead in the water

[@hakimwaempire3057]

Best and easy way to clean is just disassemble the parts drop them in gasoline[petro] leave for 1min then using a soft cloth clean the parts and assemble them back. Then thank me later

[@Keyumiz]

When you remove the float do you have to set it again?

[@Bengineer-K]

Jordan Holland Nope! Most carbs you'll run into don't need the floats set.

[@waynewaits4486]

Could not finish this video because of extremely annoying music !

[@ericperkins3078]

could you have found a more annoying soundtrack? No,. You couldn't.

[@mclaughlin324]

I understand exactly what you mean now, I didn’t at first
