FoxBansheeRacing Posted March 27, 2004 Report Posted March 27, 2004 I just went out and started the shee and looked down at the pipes, and i could see smoke coming from the right side. I got up under it and looked and it must not be making a good seal or something because the whole engine underneath the exhaust was wet with gas. Its not enough to be dripping on the ground, but enough that the motor is wet. This doesnt make sense because that is the side with both exhaust springs, the left side only has one spring. It has the o-ring and it looks like the pipe is snug right up against the o-ring. Earlier today, I broke an exhaust clamp and the left side head pipe fell off the exhaust manifold, but I dont see how that would make the other side leak. What do you think is causing this? I am SUPPOSED to go riding tomorrow so any help is appriciated. Thanks. Quote
frocashmoney24 Posted March 27, 2004 Report Posted March 27, 2004 what kind of pipes do you have, my damn dynoport never gets a good seal, had to use some exhaust sealent tape on it, you may have to do the same Quote
FoxBansheeRacing Posted March 28, 2004 Author Report Posted March 28, 2004 Well I dont know, I decided to just go out and ride it, so I rode it around for a few minutes then got off and took a look at the pipe again, and there was no smoke coming out of it. After I got that fixed I decided to mess with the jetting since I was running a little bit rich. I moved the air/fuel screw around a couple times and couldnt find a good spot, so I decided to put it back where it was before I messed with it, and it still is messed up. It wont build rpm's until I go WOT. Why the hell is it still messed up even when I put it back to where it was in the first place? And which way do you screw it to go lean? Quote
FoxBansheeRacing Posted March 28, 2004 Author Report Posted March 28, 2004 I just noticed that my left cylinder isnt firing. It started when I adjusted the the carb the first time. Why would adjusting the carb make a cylinder not fire?? Quote
FoxBansheeRacing Posted March 28, 2004 Author Report Posted March 28, 2004 Went out and did some investigating. The first time I adjusted the screw I moved it the wrong way, and adjusted it richer. Doing this made one plug foul, so when I adjusted it the right way, the reason it wouldnt rev was because my left cylinder wasnt firing. Now the problem is trying to find a place that sells the right plugs on a Sunday. My dad also mentioned something about Spitfire spark plugs, do any of you have experience with these? Quote
