This has probably been asked before, so please point me in the direction of those posts if it has .
My son has an '05 Shee with Toomey T-6 pipes. I performed the install per Toomey's instructions (jetting, etc) a couple years ago and the thing ran great. Our first trip of the dune season the bike was not idling properly. We had a boost bottle installed and due to the alignment of the intake ports, it caused the intake boots to stress and crack (unbeknowst to us initially) which caused an overly the lean condition and the idling problem. I tried mucking with the idle screws on the stock carbs which only served to throw things out of whackeven more when I discovered the torn intake boots. I replaced the boots, canned the boost bottle (for now) and manually synched the carbs as close as I could get them. (Also removed the TORS prior to noticing the intake boots) Now the bike pops thru the exhaust on the top end and seems to lose power in that range (3/4 to full open). It doesn't continue to pull all the way through the high-mid to top end like it did before the carbs got out of synch. I know I need to use a set of Vac gauges to get it fully dialed in, but what is the process? How do I connect the gauges to the carbs, and what is the desired range (if there is one) what range gauges do i need to buy, etc?
Need help fast, our next trip to the dunes is in two weeks so any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sheedad
