[Honda-C70] Re: maybe rain did it to carb?

 

Yes.
That lower screw didnt want to turn. Managed to turn it. Some water came out, as suspected, then fuel.

Cleaned spark plug with soap and brush.

Things are ok now. Its rainy season and water might collect in carb again.

Evaporating fuel lowers temp and the 100 percent humid air (during or after rain) gives out water droplets. They collect at carb bottom.

I wish that lower big carb screw turned more easily. It doesnt. Squeaks also.
