Gikki44 Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 The left side was misfiring like hell. Pulled the carbs and noticed they were way out of sync. Got em perfect now and i cannot get it to start. Ive tried kicking the hell out ot it forever and nothing. Not even trying to fire. Got good spark in both cylinders, fuel is getting in the cylinders cuz the plugs are both quite wet. Anybody got any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phelps Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 you still have tors? did you raise the slides to the point the tors thinks the throttle is sticking? (when you sync'd them) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burhead Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 did you remember to put the choke tube back in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gikki44 Posted November 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 TORS is removed with the proper kick and yes the choke tube is in. Everything is perfect as far as what needs to be there and still cannot get it to start. 120 psi on both cylinders as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bansheerage Posted November 7, 2010 Report Share Posted November 7, 2010 try swapping plug wires and see if it does it on the other side. also try brand new plugs. could be the coil. one more thing is the spark. you said you have spark but is it a nice fat blue consistant spark. sometimes it can throw you off just because you see it. hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gikki44 Posted November 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 Its no backfiring anymore it just wont start. I have tried swapping the wires before and it did the same thing. It def seems like a good spark. Very bright blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gikki44 Posted November 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 Anybody got an idea of where else to look. I don't get it cuz it's all there but won't fire. The plugs get real wet but there is good spark. It's pissing me off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakar Posted November 8, 2010 Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 maybe shes flooding mines would do that untill i got my carbs set rite. try taking plugs out dry and clean them and kick the crap out of it with no plugs to get excess petro out. put dry plugs in and try to start with no choke or 1/2 choke see if that helps goodluck man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gikki44 Posted November 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2010 Thanks for the info. I'll dry kick it and see what happens. I got the carbs synced perfect. The eyelet on both is set. Opens and closes perfect and still won't start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry's Shee Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Pick-up coil gap? Make sure plugs are completely dry before trying again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sootman73 Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 see if it will start by pull starting it. i have almost the exact same problem as you. carbs rebuilt, synced perfect, well close to perfect, good spark and fresh plugs. had to pull it for half a mile to start it. but now i can kick start it. i'm guessing it needed more air flow to pull the extra gas out..

thrill-billy85 Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Is it possible you put the slides back into the wrong carbs? If you did then they would have to be turned 180* ie. If you put the slides into the wrong carbs the only way they can go in is backwards..... Which will keep it from starting. the 45* angled cut on the bottom of the slide should be on the filter side. Also is there a chance you got the plug wires backwards??? I'm not trying to degrade your intelligence or mechanical abilities, just simple mistakes that everyone makes. You're right though, all the pieces of the puzzle seem to be in place. Spark, compression, the only thing in question is the fuel. Wet spark plugsa don't mean a good stoich mixture of fuel and air.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gikki44 Posted November 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 I'm gonna have to try and compression start it or pull it. The pick up gap is set, the slides are in correct and i got a perfect 32:1 premix. The only thing i can think is that everything is so wet from kicking the hell out of it that its just that flooded. im gonna pull the plugs and get em nice and dry and try it again. Also as far as i know the plug wires do not matter which cylinder they are on correct? I've also tried that with no success. Thanks for all the help so far guys. I would like to get this damn thing going by this weekend so i can get some riding time in!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrill-billy85 Posted November 10, 2010 Report Share Posted November 10, 2010 Yes the wires matter... If they're wrong I think it'll be trying to fire at the exact opposite time it should be. It IS possible its just flooded like a MOFO just not probible. Take the pipes off, turn off your fuel, remove your plugs, and just kick it and try blowing air in the cylinders to help evap. Some of the gas. Don't forget to dump it outta your pipes too. AND make sure you turn the motor so often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluBanshee98 Posted November 11, 2010 Report Share Posted November 11, 2010 The wires DO NOT matter! There is nothing in the coil to make it fire on a certain cylinder! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
