slomotion Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Ok, so I bought some stock carbs off of a guy that already had the TORS elimination kit installed. I took my old carbs off and then took my 200 main jets and swapped them with the 300 mains that were in his carbs. I then took my tors with the cable off and put the other throttle cable on. After I got that on I put in the new carbs with the tors elimination and the 200 mains on my shee. after hooking up the fuel and tightening everything down i tried to kick her and I got nothing. I did this forever until i tried unplugging the tors electrical cable from a black box under the gas tank. Now i got her to crank but it would rev extremely high then bog down and die. I twisted the idle screws ever way possible a hundred times until i finally got it to come to life. Then i got it to idle half way decent. Then I took it out on the street and it died after going 20 feet. after that I could only get it to start if the choke was out and then as soon as I tried to pull off it would die. Please tell me what the hell I did wrong. Until I put those carbs on she would kick over on the first try. Help me out cause I am lost now. Quote

Sounds like to me you may have them in backwards. Quote
Larry's Shee Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 (edited) Choke crossover tube on? Carbs synced ? Were idle jets same as orig carbs? float height good? carbs clean? Cutaway goes toward air filter (angled side) Edited January 10, 2011 by Larry's Shee Quote
slomotion Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Posted January 10, 2011 Are you sure you got your slides in right??? Sounds like to me you may have them in backwards. I just put them in, I didnt know they had specific sides. Quote
Larry's Shee Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 ok, check those easy things , check idle jets later Quote
slomotion Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Posted January 10, 2011 Choke crossover tube on? Carbs synced ? Were idle jets same as orig carbs? float height good? carbs clean? Cutaway goes toward air filter (angled side) Choke crossover is on, carbs synced, I am not sure about the ide jets, floats looked good and the carbs were clean. So I need to make sure the slides are in the correct side and then check the idle jet. which one is the idle jet? Quote
BUILDER Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 (edited) I just put them in, I didnt know they had specific sides. The slides have on side that has a curve to them the other side is flat make sure the curved side is facing the back of the carb if it is not they will not run for shit. With the filters off you should see a bit of a gap when you look in the carb if the slide looks flat they are in the wrong side Edited January 10, 2011 by motor builder Quote
Larry's Shee Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 3/16 hole right next to main jet , bout1/4 deep , small strate slot screwdriver. pull one from new and old carb and compare number Quote
slomotion Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Posted January 10, 2011 Ok, slides were in the correct way. I am going to pull the idle jets after dinner. I need a break for a bit. I need to make sure my cars are synced correctly again. I started getting frustrated and just lost my mind tightening and loosing crap. I am going to check those things and then post what I find out. For now is there anything else it could possibly be? oh, when I did get it to run it was spitting oil out of the pipes enough to pepper my garage floor pretty good. Quote

I'm thinking it's the wrong pilot jets too. Check them puppies out and if need be, put your old ones in the new carbs. No biggie. Quote
Larry's Shee Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 Also make sure you have same needles/clip posistion. Quote
