michigan_soler Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 Ok, so I got the shee out for the first time today, not even really out, just put some gas in it (yamalube and premium) and fired her up. it was put away last year with being fogged and carbs ran empty on fuel, also the tank was drained and used in the lawn mower, this was fresh gas/oil. Well, here's what happened, it started after second kick, yeah it was kinda cold but still was pretty warm in the garage... well, it ran for a few and i decided to change the silencers, so i ran to the store, grabbed packing and redid the packing, went to start up afterwords and it started (and was nice and quiet) but it didn't want to idle... never really idled well. so i looked at my pipes and it was throwing more "smoke" out of the right pipe. then i put my hand over the end of the pipes to feel the flow, and the left bank is like a faint blow while the right feels like putting your hand out the window doing 50mph. way WAY different. any ideas? last year my tors went out and i ordered tors removers and installed them, didn't feel comfortable trying to sinc the carbs so i took it to the local dealer and had them get it going... looked at the adjustment screws on the carbs and the left carb is fully in while the right is about half way in... no way they can be that far off... right? did the dealer bone me at the end of last season?
