For a 300, you'll be looking at a 40/42 pilot. Needles might take a bit fine tuning, but for $50 you'll get a handful that will work, and mains 172, 175, and 178 will cover it.
Just double check the model of carb you have. Take the time to set the float height. Then drop in the jets you decide on. What kind of power delivery are you after? Most with the newer bikes are loving the 40/42 NEDJ/NECJ 172/175 combo. |

I just got my brand new 2013 EC 300 home and I have started to assembly. When I check the oil lever I can't see any oil at all, even when I lean it over. Don't they start every engine at the factory?

Good chance they ship them without engine oil. Please check before starting.

On the box there should be a big sticker saying NO GAS NO OIL.

You'll get a dribble come out of the clutch. I drained what was in mine and then put fresh oil in. I'd also suggest flushing the carb bowl and tank a few times before firing it up too. |

Glenn (GMP) had issues with his 2012 model where the casting was quite average in the rad where the cap seats. Basically to the point where the cap failed to hold pressure, and blew itself dry... during a race. Wasnt picked up until afterwards.. Could have been a major issue but the resiliant engine held up to the punishment. Regardless, easier to check it rather than not.
