FIRST BANSHEE Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 first thing I would do is normal maintance. clean the air filter, change the plugs and oil, clean the carbs and try again. the idle screws are under the seat on top of the carbs. about the size of a dime. I f you still have stock carbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bansheeryder_69 Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 your tors needsa adjusted the two scres on the top of your carbeurators, about the size of a dime. once you get it adjusted right make them stay in place with loctite. that should fix the idling problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93lxcoupe Posted February 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2006 thanks for the feed back guys, but i only have on screw on the top of the carbs, and its hand knob, i belive its a choke. its a good chance the carbs are aftermarket, i just bought the shee.

Banchetta Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 thanks for the feed back guys, but i only have on screw on the top of the carbs, and its hand knob, i belive its a choke. its a good chance the carbs are aftermarket, i just bought the shee. 468549[/snapback] sounds like you have PJ carbs from keihin... the black knob is the choke when you pull it, but is also the idle when you turn it out...7 turns out from seated should be your idle or close.
