    Hello fellow husqvarna brothers´n´sisters;)

    sorry for my english, I know its not 100% but I think im awwesome heh;j

    Ok anyways
    I have adjustment problem on my husqvarna 2000 WR360 carburetor (dellorto vhsb37). The spark plug gets soaked after just a little time of riding. And now after i took the carb out of the bike and cleaned it, and put both of the two screws (air an fuel) all the way in, Im wondering how I should adjust the carburetor to idle and stop getting it soaked again after im riding.. Ive tried to adjust them but I really have no idea what I should do with those screws. How much should I screw the fuel screw counterclockwise and also the air.. Ive read on web that its not the same adjustment for every carb even though its the same type and size but any help on those screws would be very appreciated=). Thanks -Matti from the land of ice

    I have a Mikuni on mine and most everyone here has a Mikuni or PWK
    hopefully someone might be of assistance
    considered switching?

    Im running a Mikuni on mine as well, it runs great
    Any time i am tuning a carb i try starting at 1 turn each and adjust by ear because as you said each is different.
    That comes from my experience here in the desert
    Have fun with it

    Not too sure what adjustments your Dellorto has. When I owned a Beta with a Dellorto on it, it had a fuel screw, but not an air screw. You don't really say too much about the actual performance of the engine during all of this, so it would be a bit difficult to say what circuit on the carburetor actually needs tuning. Since an air screw or fuel screw, pilot jet and even the slide cutaway can all affect low end, while the needle jet, jet needle and main jet affect the high RPM range of engine operation, you have to figure out which area is the one most out adjustment and start working on that circuit first.

    Matti,

    Firstly, welcome to the site!!!

    Secondly, your 2000 model WR360 never came out with a dellorto so someone has changed the original Mikuni TM for the dellorto - no good. My 95 WR360 was the last of the dellorto model WR360 and l would say that carb is no good for this bike...a screaming fast go cart yes, a low speed trail bike no (unless you do ice racing).

    Best advise is to try and find a Mikuni TM (OEM on 2k WR360) or TMX or a Kehin PWK (38mm) as they are a lot more user friendly in tuning, knowledge and parts.
