- I just put together a small quick video to give you a fix on stuck throttle slides for the Yamaha PW50 or other dirt bikes with slide carburetors.
I cannot thank you enough! My sons pw50 throttle was stuck wide open. I messed with it for over an hour until I stumbled across this video. Without this video my 4yr old would have had to sit out from riding with us today on a rented arena cross track he had been really looking forward to. Thanks again! You saved us
Andrew DeVries I wish someone could have saved us!! But this is exactly why I wanted to make this video, I believe in RUclips university
Man I really appreciate this video you just saved me a lot of thrown tools and other broken things lol!! I sanded it down now it smooth as new thank you again!!!
Shawn Baldwin no problem.. I'm glad this is helping people..
Thanks man. This problem was driving me nuts. Brand new bike with this exact problem
Same for me so I wanted to help others out
Couldn't figure out why the throttle stayed wide open after I cleaned out the carb. The motor ran fine before I decided to clean the carb but since the bike sat for a while I figured I would go ahead and clean it out. After watching this video I filed the edges down smooth on the slide. When I dropped it down the carb it went all the way down when before it would hang up about halfway down. Thanks for the video.
Edgar Bonilla I had hit the same wall and decided to help someone else with this problem.
Great video for a newbie like me with that exact issue! 🍻
Excellent video! I have this exact same problem and all the forums were talking about irrelevant things to the issue.
I faced to same thing. All sorts of ideas with no solutions until I tried this and it worked
Just fixed a stuck throttle on my pw50! Thanks so much!
Half round or even a chainsaw file would be a better choice IMHO. Good vid 👍
Thank you!!! Ours just got stuck wide open on my 3 year old and she took a good fall =( Now i know what to do. Appreciate the video.
Will Botto that's a bummer.. Don't let it discourage her. She might be a little hesitant on getting back on again.
Great video saved me buying a new carby 🤙🏻
Tks man! Was about to call in a new carb! 🎉
Glad I was able to help
Thanks so much I've been looking for ever and you helped a lot
Welcome man... Hope it helped solve the problem that I looked forever for a solution for
Yes I have a pw80 and two screws hold the cap on. The cap doesn't screw on like the pw50. I undid the 2 screws and the cable and that sleeve won't slide out.
Having bought a used PW I noticed that the previous owner may do what many others do and not slot the slide correctly thus galling the it causing stiction...just an idea.
Hope you can answer this? I was removing the original carb to replace it and the choke cable broke off and I'm not sure if I can run without choke connected.the new carb didn't come with the little piston that' connects to the choke cable.
draggo draggon you can run without a choke. As long as that front butterfly flap is open. The issue you are going to run into is starting it. Its gonna be a complete bitch to start without that choke
I am from India and I have Suzuki Heat 125 four stroke. After pulling the throttle more than half a way, the wire seems to return as I have installed new, but, the throttle gets stuck to that position. And after blipping the grip once again, it returns to idling. Could it be the slide issue as it houses a Mikuni VM18 carburettor. Please reply soon.
What can I do if my little slide things is plastic and can’t sand it
Then your carb is not an oem style, all the oem ones have a cast slide
Chris I am just trying to remove the carb because the float is bad. I noticed that I can't remove the throttle cable where it is going into the carb. . Is that the reason ? I yank on it but don't want to kink the spring too bad or break the cable. Please help ...
You have to unscrew the cap on the top of the carburetor and the cable will come out with the slide and once you get the slide out in your hands you'll see that the cable just feeds down a small slot in the slide and rests in the bottom of the slide but you will have to compress the spring with your hand to pull that cable out
Is it the same on the pw80s by chance?
CJ Waddell this should work on and slide carb
@@kingofthecrate Haha, thxs, found out I had some bad cables and throttle assembly.
A) That paper is too course.
B) Never use a file on a bore partially an aluminium bore.
Both will cause scoring or worse and will leave potential for future problems.
Have the same exact problem. Now i will go home and try this after work. Thanks. Did the stuck throttle fix after u did this?
hot cheetos yes
Christopher Braman i did what u showed and it worked. But now the bike wont stay running unless i hold the throttle all the way open and can switch it to run because itll turn off unless i hold the throttle which then makes the bike take off. Ive messed with the idle screw, cleaned the carb and put a new plug. Do u have any idea what the problem may be?
My carb is brand new and I took the cable and needle and it still won’t go in
im not sure what you are telling me
Christopher I don’t remember but I think I was having trouble with throttle slide I just filed a burr down flat
7 years later and still the only video on this issue with a pw ty wasted 2 hours watching nonsense
the days of search engines showing real results for the the thing you searched has sailed every thing but now
@@Scott-v7hyeah it’s all some unboxing video or paid advertising..
I’m about to take a Sawzaw to this shit if it don’t come out. I’m trying the same way you got it out and it’s not budging at all. Piece of shit Amazon knockoff carbs, its what I get for using them I guess
Yeah man, I always spend the extra money on mikuni OEM carbs for that exact reason.
