CHROME INTAKE CLAMPS L78-84. I have an 83 ironhead and I am installing these clamps that the screws are off set on the clamp to where the space is larger on one side. How do I install these? which end goes toward the carb the small side or the large side?

Ok. It was not the carb after all. The valve timing was off after rebuild. Different year parts, like flywheel and so on. I took it to the rebuilder and had him figure it out. He burned out my coil and now I need to replace that. I had a crane ignition and he installed points after he burned out my coil. I hope it did not hurt the ignition as well. At least I know that I was doing everything right and according to the book. It was driving me crazy. It was not the jets or the float. Runs fine with

there is gas comming out of the carb when it is running. Out the main jet..

I have an E shorty carb on a 1000 cc 1984 sportster. I just had the engine rebuilt and changed to Milwaukee Twins #450-1841-3/4" OD dual slash-cut mufflers from originals with the cross over. The carb is now running way to rich and is flooding out. How far down do I re-jet? Or what can I do? I have already trouble shot according to the manual that I received with the E kit. HELP!! The carb is only 2 months old and has hardly been used and it ran fine before the motor rebuild and the change of

540-000 I bought a pair of these online for half the price. I had to do some modifying. I have an early 84’ and these are a difficult year for any OEM part as you already know. Try “sporty specialties” if Kirk don’t have them he can get them.

I have an 84’ sportster that there is a growling noise in my primary case. Now my clutch will not release at times. It seems to happen when I get up over 40mph or so the cable stiffens and I pull over to the side of the rode for a minute or so then it is ok again. I do not have the right tools to pull the clutch so I have done every thing else like change the primary chain, put on the M-6 though it shifts smoother now, it still growls and gets hung up when ridden for a while over 40mph. Can that
