Top Carburetor Tuning related questions

If you encounter clouds of black smoke from the exhaust, misfiring, overheating, or hard starting, your carburettor might be overdue for a tuning. You can also keep an eye on the check engine light which usually turns on when there’s something wrong.

A minor carburettor tuning typically takes an hour to complete. However, it may take longer depending on your car model, its current parts, the complexity of the adjustments, and the time spent for test driving to check the engine. 

With Airtasker, you can find a nearby carburettor tuning specialist that matches your needs and budget! Our transparent review and rating system can help you book the best Tasker for immediate tuning done from your home, office, or garage.

What do carburettor tuning services include?

Carburettor tuning is critical for any two-cycle or four-cycle vehicle. Careless adjustments can trigger carbon buildup, produce insufficient power, and cause more issues that may damage your car engine in the long run. If your carburettor isn’t properly tuned, your car engine will never live up to its full potential—which is why it’s best to leave it in the hands of a tuning expert!. After discussing your needs, a top-rated Tasker will go to your preferred location and make the following adjustments:

Locating the Carburettor

Before the actual engine tuning, the air filter and housing will be removed to access the carburettor easily. Once exposed, your Tasker will have to look for two of its integral screws: air/fuel mixture screws, which measure and allow fuel and air to enter your engine; and, idle mixture screws, which control the air/fuel mixture but at idle speed.

Engine Assessment

Your car must be running to assess the engine’s condition thoroughly. Over lean means that it’s using too much air but less fuel, while over rich means there’s too much fuel but not enough air.

Air/Fuel & Idle Mixture Screws Tuning

Depending on the condition of your engine, necessary adjustments to the carburettor will be made. The screws will be strengthened if lean; or, they will be loosened if over rich. The Tasker will have to rev up your car after every adjustment with increasing RPMs until the engine is running smoothly with no misfire or vibration. If all is well, the air filter and housing will be reinstalled back onto your carburettor.

Engine Check

You may join your asker to do a quick test drive to make sure that everything’s in place and adjusted accordingly.

$50

Petersham NSW, Australia

4th May 2024

I put a battery in and it wants to start, but I carby is gummed up and I haven’t put fuel in or checked tank or fuel lines or fuel pump. Basically, I want someone to come round, and assess the fuel system - and definitely clean carby as it’s a bit stuck, due to non use. As there are several factors - this fee is to assess the above including removing the carby to assess to extent to which cleaning needs to be. I’ll then consider a reasonable quote for starting the vehicle. I’ve done it myself with far worse examples. Also, I have another running hijet van and we can borrow parts to help establish / eliminate. With little time on my hands, this outsourced help suits someone able to come to Stanmore Road Petersham I am flexible with your schedule

Leak down test & carby tune Hyosung 650

$200

Campbelltown NSW, Australia

24th Mar 2024

I need someone to come to me and do a leak down test on 1 cylinder on a Hyosung 650. I will have the tank off and ready. Compression is fine on both cylinders, when it is warm it starts to blow smoke and changes with revs. I don’t know if it’s running rich or the oil rings are gone. If leak down test is okay then will have to look at tuning the carbys. The fuel lines and clamps around the fuel pump might need to be replaced as well as they are leaking. Please ignore the budget and quote what it would take.
