thrill-billy85 Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 ok i had the cracked intake boots. bike was revvng out. doesnt rev out anymore with the new boots though it kinda seemed lke t wanted to once. this fucking thing still wont start wthout carb cleaner. when it does i gotta juke the shit out of the throttle to keep it running. if i dont it dies. i rode it a bit and after about 1/3rd throttle it fucking flies, but as soon as i stop it dies. spark is good. same jetting as before when it ran well. heres what it doesnt have:::::::: the choke tube???? there used to be a tube runnung between the carbs. in my haste to get the boots on it, t fell off and i forgot about it....... is this the damn problem??? im gonna try it tomorrow, but untl then any advice. this thing is making me sick not being able to ride it Quote
dirtydownunder Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 you must have that choke tube connected, with out it you have an air leak and all your fuel mixtures will be up to shit. connect it up and see how you go, if it still doesnt idle, double check your carb sync and idle screws. Quote

bbcmudtruck Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 Connect the choke tube, then try adjusting your carbs! You MUST have that choke tube connected. Quote

I know the factory setting on the pilot screws is 2 turns out. I've got the TORS eliminator with moose caps and idle screws..... What's a good starting point for the idle screws. I'm .020 over, v-force2's, fmf fattys, 3000 elev, #270 mains, ??? Pillots, needle all the way down Quote
