Evinrude Sportwin Carburetor Reassembly

Evinrude Sportwin Reassembly Of Carburetor

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Reassemble the carburetor, paying particular attention to the following procedure. Keep all dust, dirt, and lint out of the carburetor during reassembly. Be sure that parts are clean and free from gum, varnish, and corrosion when reassembling them. Replace all gaskets and sealing washers. DO NOT attempt to use original gaskets and washers, as leaks may develop after the engine is back in use.

FLOAT AND FLOAT CHAMBER

  1. Install orifice plug and screw plug in float chamber, using a new sealing washer.
  2. Install inlet needle valve seat, using a new washer. Invert the carburetor body and place the inlet needle valve in position.
  3. Install the float and arm assembly and the nylon hinge pin.
  4. To check position of float, turn carburetor body upside down, so that weight of the float closes float needle. With float arm straight, float should be parallel with face of casting and approximately 13/16" from casting. Hold carburetor body in upright position. Float should drop 1-7/16" plus or minus 1/16" from the carburetor body.
  5. Using a new gasket, install the float chamber to the carburetor body.
