Carburetor mixture adjustment

#1 Unread post by CETOM2 »

Hi, I have a Yamaha V-Star 650. Would anyone know how to adjust mixture and syncronize the carburetor?

Thanks for any advice.

You must drill out the brass mixture plugs to adjust the mixture and you need a carb synch tool to synch. If you are unsure of any of these, take to your favorite shop.

make sure you dont drill out the head of the mixture screw while drilling out that plug like everyone else does their first time.
