Minimoto Carbon Race Reed Fitting Instructions

The minimoto carbon race reed is an easy to fit performance part which is designed to give optimum engine fuelling conditions providing large gains in acceleration and top speed. The standard reeds used in all air cooled Chinese minimotos are manufactured from stainless steel and are prone to flutter at high revs resulting in a loss of power and engine stuttering Following are the easy to follow instructions for fitting your performance carbon race reeds:-

Fitting of minimoto carbon race reeds

1) First of all remove the black air filter unit from the rear of the carburator by undoing and removing the two crosshead securing screws.

2) Ensure the petrol tap is turned OFF and remove the petrol pipe from the carburator by depressing the retaining clip and gently pulling clear.

3) Undo the knurled top of the carburator and lift off carefully, the throttle slide which is attached to the throttle cable will lift clear.

4) Then undo and remove the two Allen screws which go through the carburator body securing it to the engine, and lift the carb away.

5) Undo and remove the 4 Allen screws that retain the carburator manifold and reed block and lift clear.

6) The reed block has 2 crosshead screws which retain the reed (the standard reed being stainless and split). Undo the two crosshead screws then remove the standard stainless reed and replace with the carbon race reed. Note: To get more power you can remove the centre bar of the reed manifold by using a small saw (this is optional).

7) Now just reverse the procedure using thread locking compound on all screws to ensure they do not vibrate loose it.

Now experience and enjoy the power gains from your newly fitted carbon race reeds.
