INSTALLATION
Assemble Manifold
  1. Refer to the instruction sheet in the manifold kit for assembly and installation.
Install Carburetor
NOTE
The fit between the carburetor and the intake manifold seal is tight. Apply liquid dish soap or tire mounting lube on the mating surfaces, carburetor body, and seals to ease installation and reduce surface friction.
This procedure should also be used for attaching the fuel line.
1. See Figure 7. Insert carburetor (15) into manifold following the instructions in the Service Manual. As the carburetor is being inserted, make sure the choke cable is not being kinked.
NOTE
See Figure 1. This carburetor is equipped with an external vent (1). Blocking or attaching a hose to the vent will affect carburetor operation.
2. See Figure 1. Install fuel petcock vacuum line to vacuum fitting (2) on carburetor.
3. Slip fuel hose onto carburetor fuel fitting (3) and secure with hose clamp from kit.

WARNING
Install proper length throttle cables. Incorrect cable length can adversely affect motorcycle operation, which could cause loss of control resulting in death or serious injury. (00396b)
4. Route overflow line behind rear cylinder push rod tubes, behind rear cylinder, and on top of engine/transmission surface. It should then be routed down between engine/transmission and inner primary housing.
NOTE
The overflow line can be cut to improve fit. It should not hang below the lowest engine/transmission surface. Doing so would expose the end of the hose to excessive air flow, which could affect carburetor operation.
Install High Performance Air Cleaner
WARNING
The element in this kit is specifically designed for use with the OE (original equipment) cover. Using this kit with an air cleaner cover other than the OE cover could lead to failure of the element faceplate. The kit may be used in conjunction with other H-D accessory covers provided the appropriate adapter recommended in those kits is used. If the element faceplate fails the cover could detach possibly distracting the rider which could result in death or serious injury. (00400b)

Figure 6. Idle Mixture Screw (IMS) Location (viewed from carburetor bottom)
MAINTENANCE
Tuning the Carburetor
If the engine exhibits a rich or lean condition at idle and up to 1/4 throttle opening, adjusting the idle mixture screw (IMS, Figure 6 ) will likely correct the condition.
The IMS is a fuel flow adjuster. It is set at the factory at 1-1/2 turns out. Turning the screw:
  • in (clockwise) leans the fuel mixture, and
  • out (counterclockwise) enriches the fuel mixture.
Gently bottom the screw before making adjustments. Do not over tighten. The IMS should then be adjusted within a range from 1/2 to 3-1/2 turns out.
NOTE
Do not adjust the IMS "out" further than 3-1/2 turns.
  • If the engine idles best with the screw less than 1/2 turn out, the slow jet is too large and should be replaced with a smaller (leaner) slow jet.
  • If the engine does not idle well with the screw 3-1/2 turns out, the slow jet is too small and should be replaced with a larger (richer) slow jet.
Additional jets and needles for tuning are included in the Tuner Kit.
Replace the jet, then reset the IMS away from the extreme positions.
Air Cleaner Element Maintenance
When servicing the air cleaner, apply Loctite 243 (blue) to threads of all fasteners.
  1. See Figure 7. Remove air cleaner cover (A) and inspect the filter element (12) every 5000 mi (8000 km), or more often under dusty conditions.
  2. To clean the element, remove and wash by immersing it, on edge, in a shallow pan containing enough Air Cleaner/Degreaser to cover no more than 3/4 the depth of the filter pleats. Do not let dirty solution get inside the element. Carefully "roll" the element in the solution around its perimeter until the entire outer surface of the filter pleats has been soaked.
  3. Remove filter element from cleaner/degreaser and allow five minutes for the cleaner to dissolve the dirt.
  4. Shake off excess water, and allow the element to air dry. Do not dry with compressed air.
  5. Lubricate filter element using Air Cleaner Oil. Apply along the full length of each pleat, and allow to set until the element is a uniform color. Allow excess oil to drain.
  6. Install air cleaner element and cover.
