Very helpful and informative! I plan on building 2 predators for the grandson's go-cart build, and this carb along with a stage 1 kit should do the trick! Thanks for sharing!

I just installed a vm22 on my 212 !! 👍👍 I haven’t put any performance parts on my engine. However I’ve port/polish shaved head
Recut valve s and of coarse reset valve clearance
Just a header pipe homemade muffler
She’ll fly around the neighborhood if you can keep the front wheel down! Lol
I kept a 65 t on back and at about 5-6 grand I’m leaning over the handlebars lol ✌️

I had the exact problem you described, thanks for the vid! It was the rod not properly seated in Carb! ❤

[Zayaplayz]

thankyou for showing the clip you pushed in with the spring couldn’t find that info anywhere

[keithbrown]

Awsome video I just got fourth gps 22mm carb from u guys never disappointed shipping is usually the delay but its always 👍🏼 good 😃😉

[scoc]

should do a follow up vid with spark plug reading after tuning the carb if its rich or lean. how to compensate and adjust/tune again if what is the result.

I have a tip for anyone struggling to get their engine running after changing carburetor or doing anything with the valve springs. If you try to start and it “pulls back” or stops coming out, your valve lash gapping is not correct and needs to be fixed. For a Honda clone 196 or predator 212 it is about 0.003”

Thank you for the information I just install a Mikuni 22 on my Coleman CT200u and having trouble with the idle.

Had problems with the Mikuni that came with my rebuilt XR200R motor, wherever the screws where it ran above 2000rpm choke worked as throttle no revs barely on throttle, so found one same as yours here said for XR200, had marks where it was set (idle 1.25t) kicked over ran a beaut straight away, been buzzing around the village on it tonight, just has a bubble in the fuel line issue cause it's modified with a CL360 tank and the fuel line is hooped down up over and down to the carb, atm has a fat clear fuel hose on, just need to let the air fizzle out 😂 it's like a soda 😂 then it runs ✌🏻

[Elijahhuckaby]

Nice love it I just need help with tune

[DUDDreams]

Could you do a video or explain about all the different lines to do and where everything goes? What to do with the hole at the top of gas tank on predator 212cc engine, what to do with the valve cover hole, and any other thing? Would be much appreciated! Thank you!!

After installing a new carburetor I like to spray the contact points with break cleaner and listen for an rpm change. No change is good. Change is bad.

[stevenbutterfield]

Thanks for the video. What should I do with the carburetor when it cuts out at full throttle?

[tombez]

This carb is not Mikuni one is a Chinese clone i am afraid. Make sure you didn't paid full price for it...

[TheBiliken]

When we buy these from you, you all set the fuel mixture screw already so we don’t have to change this right?

[michaelmilligan]
