A power valve is an adjustable(valve) that lets you move your powerband up or down in the rpm band. On one side of the motor there should be a window (alteast on mine) and the adjacent side should be a the valve adjuster. Loosen the screws and turn it accordingly to what you like. Hope this helps. -Mark
EDIT: It should be located toward the front of the motor. Just under the exhaust port. I don't think you need to replace it. It's probably just needs to be adjusted. Or you could have put it back together wrong. |
