RadarRacing Posted September 16, 2011 Report Posted September 16, 2011 If the eccentric/concentric adjuster is worn any and or is adjusted slightly too high it can do what you are describing. Also if the shift shaft or claw is worn/ bent at all that can give you problems. Sounds like since you just put forks in it and all should be good then maybe the eccentric is adjusted with the claw part that hits the pins on the shift star may be a little higher now. Should be centered on each pin on the star. If not , or if it does it in 4th and 5th as well it can be slutch slip for sure. Quote
tz racin Posted September 16, 2011 Author Report Posted September 16, 2011 Cam its a brand new override and if i stay in it it definitly wont shift trust me ya gotta get ouuta it to make shift. Radar i think u could b right about the adjuster pin for shift shaft claw i believe its set up to grab 1 st gear more when u go to put in first ecefy now and then it would go back to neutral and i wouldnt even know it so i adjusted a little bit more towards the downshift i will center it today ,and when u say ecentric whefe r we talkin to find eccentric ? Thanks for help i apprieciate it Quote

Thanks for help i apprieciate it The eccentric is the M8 x 1.25 threaded rod that is used to adjust the position of the claw. The solid part of the bolt is offset from the threaded part making it an eccentric cam when rotated. SP Quote

tz racin Posted September 20, 2011 Author Report Posted September 20, 2011 Im pretty sure i got er nailed down, had to put 50 pilot in it and it cleaned righ up, and needle is dropped alway down, main jwt it came with seems a tad on rich side but soes work real good so im fonna leave er alone my next batch of oil i mix will be 32 to 1 per gallon i have the first mix set up at 20 to 1 and its to much with caster 927 lol Quote
banshee760 Posted September 20, 2011 Report Posted September 20, 2011 I would use klotz instead of the castor 927 klotz is better for race gas/alcohol runs cleaner in my.opinion 927 is real good.but I just use that for pump gas or some race gas Quote
