Honda GC190 Carb.
« on: July 11, 2019, 02:03:27 PM »
The Honda GC190 carb that is on my engine does not have a idling screw.  When I crank the engine it idles way to fast. Does anyone know of an aftermarket carb that will fit that engine with idle screw adjustment.  Desperatly need help. Repair shops nearby are no help.

thanks
no shift
Hello everyone,
Glad to see someone start a new Simplex site.  The old Simplex Collectors site just quit.
I own 3 Simplex Motorcycles:1948 I just completed restoration, 1953 basket case,1956 Restored currently in a museum. I also restored a James ML and a 1954 Triumph Terrier.

Spit-balling here ...
Maybe adjust idle via cable tension ?
Or possibly bending a stop tab ?

Take a picture of the carb for us.  I had a GS190, which is the same  as a GC190 but with a cast iron sleeve.  It had an adjustment screw on the carb linkage.
