Are you asking about the slide? the slide is flat on top the bevel end goes into the carb first or the proper name is ( cut away) on the slide. The floor on the slide tube will be at the bottom when all goodie are in place. Does this make better since.

I got it from the pics. The reason the one bowl of the pipe is so deep is it HOLDS the spring right? I had the darn thing backwards maybe why it was so rich.

When I get a new eclip tomorrow I expect this thing to run like a dog chasing a car.

Those pictures are how I have mine now and guess what? It runs!!! It's a little lean from the first adjustment to the top groove (and I didn't feel like fixing it now). Bottom line - your pictures above are correct!!!

Just how many errors could be in those instructions? That one is particularly bad! Actually I'm rather pissed!!! People would put it together per the instructions and the thing won't run. That is terrible. I flooded the thing and wiped out two spark plugs. I guess it's kinda good for the metals - soaked with very oily gas.

Anyway the bike is running OK. I'll need to go back to the second groove and set the idle. Probably get a fresh plug.

Laugh at the stinking Chinese instructions. Not us!!

BTW Norman, I don't know you, but you are the MAN!

Hey I threw the little silver clip into the cylinder and broke two rings because of those lousy directions. I was soooo upset.

Norman helped me replace the rings and now get the carb right. I think I am finally going to get this thing running now. thanks to your question I saw what I was doing wrong from Norms pics as well.

the main jet is for wide open throttle the needle is tapered for low to mid throttle.
Performance? If you are looking for that buy a motorcycle.
