AF05 carb on AF16 // PA 31M vs PA 35J carb differences
Posted: Thu Jun 15, 2017 4:01 pm
Trying to pinpoint source of a fuel cut issue, and leading me to carb. Motor is AF16, all stock beside a KymcoZX50 pipe
Have a spare stock carb from a '93 SR (AF05), figure I'd try it since on hand.
from noiseguy's carb ident thread & Honda service manual:
88 - 93 Elite (SA50)
PA 31M
Jetting: 88
94 - 02 Elite (SA50/Dio)
PA 35J
Jetting: 78
Has anyone had the pleasure of trying such a "downgrade"??
I know the PA 35J is about 14mm, but what about the PA 31M? Venturi diam looks smaller, but how much smaller
And whats the deal with the fatter 88 vs 78 jetting, seems counter-intuitive for a smaller carb..
Likely won't stick with this setup if it chokes the bike, but driving me crazy not having a decent reliable daily scoot..
trying to mend that with this stopgap measure
