I had the carbs adjusted by a dealer a while back but I haven't checked the slides yet. Thanks, I'll look into it.

Hey all! I have a 97 Shee that would always run a little crappy, wouldn't idle, and smoke on the right side some. Had cylinders bored and put pistons in. Starts on 1 kick, idles great, but right side smokes and doesn't seem to hit well. I put my hand on the exhaust and the left side pushes a lot out, is hot, and clears up quick. Right side smokes, misses, and at certain rpm pretty much stops putting out. You can hear the left side firing through the exhaust but lean to the right and it very sporadic if at all. I pulled right side wire while running and it died. I shifted the coil wires over and it started and run the same(I didn't think it would start or run unless I actually swapped the wires). I have read all the threads about right side crank seal but why would it not be hot, missfire, or simply not put out at certain rpm? Also, the compression is the same on both sides. It has Kool Head, FMF pipes and silencers, new stator, the carbs have been rebuilt, the jets are at 330 (K/N filter bolted w/lid off), plugs are new, mix is 40:1. Any thoughts or better theory for an ex-Honda/Acura mechanic? Love the Shee but only running on cylinder and half it seems. Enough details?

I'll go pick some up today and see if it helps. Thanks!

Hey guys! Just rebuilt (pistons, bore, gaskets) my 97 Shee after getting tired of pull/carb spray starting it. It now starts after 3 kicks and will hold an idle great. The concern is that the right side smokes some, the exhaust has less pressure and is considerably cooler. It only smokes when rapping the throttle. This is the same side as before the rebuild that smoked. It seems like this thing should start easier and have a lot more power. It was a beach quad before I bought it with the cylinders sanded down (one piston just fell out when I removed the cylinder!) I've rebuilt the carbs, replaced spark plugs, jets are at 330 (chocolate brown plugs) and like I said, it idles great, craps out some at bottom (stock reeds) but rockets in the band and above. Where do I start? Crank seal? Bad rebuild? Bad wire or coil? I'm new with 2 strokes diagnosing and leaning on your experience! Thanks!! Woz
