- In this video I quickly demonstrate how to replace the rubber diaphragm on a CV carburetor slider. Don't forget to let them dry before installing them!
Brilliant Ross, I was struggling as it doesn't tell you how in the Haynes manual. I'm no confident thank you.
Good luck😊
Great tutorial Ross. I now feel confident to take a go at the membrane of my Kawasaki ZRX
Hey Ross, question about the other video since you've got comments turned off on that one. Did the float bowls come with the drain screws? I didn't see them in your video and you didn't say. I'd assume they do, just checking.
Thnx
Mate
Hey Ross , do you think this method could work with a 2006 Kawasaki 250ninja carby vacuum diaphragm, same sort of set up just looks a little different obviously , cheers for making the vid 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
we’re you able to figure it out? i’m currently stuck on this with my 2008 ninja 250 and i can’t find anything online
@@forealcb262 mine turned out to be fine , I’ve also picked up 2 sets of carbs for cheap to make 1 good set , I will be trying this I just haven’t done it yet
@@forealcb262 I hope you didn’t get replacement diaphragms from Kawasaki at least here in Australia new diaphragms are $255 each , so get on eBay get some from China for $20-$40 get 2 sets and try your luck 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
@@forealcb262 there 3-4 slides with diaphragms on eBay , in Australia I don’t know where you are but sus eBay if you already haven’t 👍🏼👍🏼
@@forealcb262 here man , copy this into your eBay “Carburetor Piston Plunger Diaphragm for EL250 Eliminator ZL250LX ZZR-250 EX250” $26 each slide and diaphragms from China just check measurements should be good to go
Thank you!
This is totally crap! The diaphragms will NOT be sealed and will not be airtight which they have to be to function. Please do NOT follow this wrong advice.
I can only speak for my experience with my bike, but it has been running great for 4 years since I used this method to replace 3 of the 4 diaphragms.
Been repairing these for many years with no problem.
So how do you do it then
I think by the very nature of your comment it’s clear you tried and failed, but perhaps you botched it and did a poor job. Repairing diaphragms is a common fix instead of replacing.
Clearly you are an all thumbs kinda guy. Just because YOU failed to follow properly, MANY of us do this to our bikes with ZERO PROBLEMS. Might wanna check your attitude at the door when you stumble across something and ask for assistance instead of condemnation. YOU Sir are the type of person others avoid at all costs.
Ross, how did you know that those needed to be replaced?
Differences in the metal slides from wear, clearly visible.
