cleanned my filters, now it runs rich

[rtcc]

Put new plus in it and if that doesnt help them switch the plug wires and see what happens.

 

If that doesnt do it then take your carbs apart and clean them.

Clean your pilots out or put 27.5's in it. Also check your air screw, 1.5 turns out.

i took my filters off today and its still not any better. i cant even get it started. it just pops backfires and blows gas out of the left silencer. i didnt have alot of time to mess with it today and i have to work the next two days but ill take the carbs off friday when im off.

 

i thought that if it got dirt in the pilot or main jet it would be lean though. im definitely not a carb expert so im probably wrong.

Did you have the slides out?did you get them back in the right carb?

no i didnt have the slides out. probably just got dirt and trash in the carb from having the filter off. i didnt put anything over the pipes while i was cleaning/oiling the filters. :sad:

did you do anythingelse between the time it ran good, and when it started acting up? including a good washing. if it's dumping fuel, it's a safe bet there's some in the pipe. you'll have to clear that out and put new plugs in.

you may wanna check your reeds, just for shits and giggles

no. i just cleaned and oiled the filters, but i left the carbs uncovered for the 3 or 4 hours that i was cleaning/oiling them and waiting for them to dry.

You just need to take the carbs off and go through them and get it over with. Blow your jets out and check float and fuel valve seats.
