EPA cap removal?
25 Apr 2008 09:49
I'll be pulling the EPA caps this afternoon to clean out the mixture valves. Is there a preferred (fast) way to do this? I'm guessing drill and easy-out at this point.

Mike, I am not really sure what you are talking about. Not sure what an EPA cap is or a mixture valve. It would also help a lot if you edited your profile to add your bike year/model and your location.

Just guessing... if yer talkin bout the little caps that cover the air mixture screws on the carbs, then be careful when drilling - the screws are just below. JMK.
Yup... thanks.

Am guessing you've already done this correctly a dozen times, but maybe this will assist someone else having a similar problem. Maybe a Mod will come to the rescue.
