The sole purpose of the air/fuel screw is idle quality, and “off idle” throttle response.

Can a 91 KX80 carb fit on an 87?
There’s a 91 kx80 carb on ebay right now…does anyone know if that will fit on an 87? My guess is the air/fuel is metered just by your pilot jet. Even if you did have an external air/fuel screw, adjusting that screw will not stop your bike from smoking. The sole purpose of the air/fuel screw is idle quality, and “off idle” throttle response.
Where is the idle speed adjustment on a Kawasaki KX80?
The idle speed adjustment is up on the slide portion at its base and the idle adjustment is down on the body of the carb. IIRC it’s at the rear, but might be at the front, don’t remember. I have a larger Mikuni on my KX80 along with a lot of mods.
What happens when you unscrew the CARB on a Kawasaki 2 stroke?
Pull the float bowl off and turn the carb upside down and the main jet is staring you in the face. It’s the big jet in the center, hex shaped, and will unscrew. There is a number on that jet that signifies its size. Bigger the number the richer the jet. This is the most important jet, the one that if you get it too lean, it will seize your engine.

How can I start my Kawasaki KX 125 faster?
Warm the bike up and do a compression test on it to see where you stand with that. try turning the gas off when you are not using it and then back on when you want to use it, the fresh fuel will help start easier than the fuel that has been sitting with all the light stuff evaporating off I wondered about the compression too.
