Mrdjc Posted April 24, 2014 Author Report Posted April 24, 2014 Would the pilots being to small cause it to stop running? Quote
blowit Posted April 24, 2014 Report Posted April 24, 2014 Nope. Jetting is NOT your issue. I have no idea why we are looking at jet sizes, elevation, etc. You have an acute failure somewhere. I can't do anymore to help you though. If you truly are not getting fuel, you will have to find the reason or take it somewhere that can. Quote
Strm Trpr Posted April 24, 2014 Report Posted April 24, 2014 Oh yeah, that's right, his motor quit running on him. It almost sounds like the motor is not drawing fuel into the motor? OP, have you pulled the reeds out to inspect them? Quote
Mrdjc Posted April 24, 2014 Author Report Posted April 24, 2014 Reed seem fine. No light coming through them. Seems like the fuel isn't being pulled into the motor for some reason. As soon as I spray fuel trough the carb is runs first kick Quote
Strm Trpr Posted April 24, 2014 Report Posted April 24, 2014 Did you make sure the air jets at 6 o'clock in this image were clean?image.jpg Quote
Mrdjc Posted April 24, 2014 Author Report Posted April 24, 2014 Yes I did. I have taken them apart. And made sure everything that came apart is clean Quote
special06shee Posted April 24, 2014 Report Posted April 24, 2014 Pull fuel lines off carbs, and turn petcock on. See if your getting a steady stream.. Maybe petcock screen is clogged. Quote
Banny&RappyGuy Posted April 25, 2014 Report Posted April 25, 2014 this is exactly what mine is doing as well. If i put fuel in the head oor spray it right in the carb it'll fire up. ive cleaned the carbs and everything in them like 5 times, i even boiled the carbs.I have 125 cpmpression in each cylinder and brand new reeds. What the HELL am i missing?? i kicked and kick with the choke on at WOT and the plugs are dry. If i help start it itll stay running. what else to try? Quote
Mrdjc Posted April 26, 2014 Author Report Posted April 26, 2014 Air leak? Carb bowel gasket not sealing right? For some reason pilots are not getting air through and from what I understand neither are the mains since it also won't start at WOT Quote
Mrdjc Posted April 26, 2014 Author Report Posted April 26, 2014 Fuel from the tank flows great so it can't be that Quote
Mrdjc Posted April 30, 2014 Author Report Posted April 30, 2014 Update. It seems only my right cylinder is firing. Sprayed a lot of fuel in the carbs and it reved really high and only the right side got hot Quote
Mrdjc Posted April 30, 2014 Author Report Posted April 30, 2014 I never mentioned that before the bike died the only way for me to kill the engine was to stall it out. The kill switch never worked but now that I'm spraying fuel in the carb the kill switch seems to work when I spray a lot and it revs high Quote
blowit Posted April 30, 2014 Report Posted April 30, 2014 An air leak in the engine is very highly suspect then. I would recommend a leakdown test on the engine at this point. You have blown out a crank seal or something. Quote
