Just picked up a 75 XL that has a S&S Super E installed. Bike sat for a few years and was not getting fuel. Took the bowl off (left carb on bike) and cleaned things up. She fired right up first try :) She falls flat on her face when giving it some spirited throttle. Tried adjusting the accelerator pump screw from all the way in to all the way out, no help. Took the air cleaner off (bike not running) looked into the throat of the carb and gave the throttle a twist..........shes pumping gas.................right into my face! Is that right? Shouldnt it be spraying towards the throttle butterfly? Spraying towards the air cleaner doesnt make sense. If it is wrong, can I just turn that tube to the correct direction?
