VictorK Posted November 3, 2010 Report Posted November 3, 2010 I just redid my tranny with new bearings. I also changed the actuator. Once it was all set I started it and it doesn't wanna run unless I have it gassed. I went to pull the clutch in and realized the actuator worked its way up and bent the piece that holds it down up. I got it back in and started it again. The actuator would move up and down and eventual go back up! Who has seen this crap? Quote
AKheathen Posted November 3, 2010 Report Posted November 3, 2010 say what? you talking about the lever rod poping out of the case, right under the carbs? if so, you may not have had it all the way in, or oriented right when you adjusted the clutch.... Quote

Haha I took the rod out and turned it around. The actuator doesn't come up anymore but there's another issue still. It starts hard and when it does it likes to rev high. It revved out of control so I hit the kill switch, turned the key and pulled the plug caps off, fucker was still screaming. Just did a leak test, she held 6psi for 6 mins. Could the floats be stuck? Help me out here! Quote

bansheesrtoys Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 revving hi could be caused by a stuck slide on the carb, or the choke tube that goes from carb to carb is not installed. Quote
VictorK Posted November 4, 2010 Author Report Posted November 4, 2010 The tube was connected and when I was syncing the carbs the slides seemed ok.I thought it was a leak at first. I'm thinking a float was stuck but I'm looking for suggestions. Thanks revving hi could be caused by a stuck slide on the carb, or the choke tube that goes from carb to carb is not installed. Quote
AKheathen Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 start with a leak-down test......could be the cases leaking Quote

AKheathen Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 what did you use to seal tle cases? rtv and such will deteriorate as soon as gas hits it.... Quote
VictorK Posted November 5, 2010 Author Report Posted November 5, 2010 I used yamabond. I kinda did cheat with the leak test as it holds pressure for 6 Mins but not all 6psi. The rubber plugs wanna have a small leak due to the shape after the port work. I feel like it holds pressure really well. My buddy said this happened with one of his 250RS and it turned out to be a Stuck float what did you use to seal tle cases? rtv and such will deteriorate as soon as gas hits it.... Quote
rdzbangshee Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 i now my floats are bent about a 1 mm apart they are not even the last time i looked at them they may have bent out of Wac float adjustment is a pain you will still burn your engine up if you adjust them Quote

68chevyc10355 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Posted November 7, 2010 I wouldnt think that a stuck float would cause it to rev, if anything it would fall on its face because of running rich. Revving is usually caused by a lean condition, but you said the leak down was great. Sounds like it could be a stuck carb slide or the crossover tube between the carbs is missing or not on right.

AKheathen Posted November 7, 2010 Report Posted November 7, 2010 how much pressure did it lose? you can loose 1 psi in 6 min. and, why don't you seal up that rubber plug? a leak is a leak, and never good. Quote
sleeper06 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Posted November 7, 2010 What did you mean by after the port work it wont hold air in the rubber plug Quote
