Series
All U.S. models have 32 mm carburetors .
Carburetor slide rattles at various engine speeds
(usually one side of engine).
Engine falters when braking if the choke is on and the
engine is cold.
The carburetor slide oscillates vertically in the
slide chamber.
Fuel is reaching the choke reservoir via the bleed
valve.
A rubber “O” ring has been fitted to the _top of the
slide to dampen the oscillation. Theยท-~buretor body
and slide have been modified accordingly.
The line of the bleed port has also been modified.
Introduction: RlOOGS – from frame #6 335 720
Note:
RlOOP-D – from frame #6 417 191
Carburetors with the modifications described above are
marked with the letter “A” after the type designation
(e.g., 94/40/124 A stamped on the fin between the intake
stub and the carburetor housing},
The part numbers are unchanged.
If the fault is extreme, both carburetors must be replaced.
Very truly yours,
BMW of North America, Inc.
