823REDHORSE Posted February 23, 2006 Author Report Posted February 23, 2006 i just put brand new v-force 3 reeds in it so i would hope they are not bad Quote
FATBANSHEE Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 sounds like a clogged pilot jet or a broken reed on that side. good luck Quote
fastbanshee8 Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 If the right side isn't getting hot at idle, then the pilot jet is probably plugged. You said you only cleaned the main jets, but the mains don't flow fuel at idle, the pilots do. You will need a small screwdriver to pull out the pilot, in order to clean it. Quote
823REDHORSE Posted February 24, 2006 Author Report Posted February 24, 2006 i cleaned both carbs pilots and mains, it seemed to help a little bit, but still acts the same. i will work on it some more this weekend. Quote
ranceego Posted February 24, 2006 Report Posted February 24, 2006 Maybe put in bigger pilot jets.....27.5? I replaced mine with 30's. My setup is in my sig, have stock carbs with 320 mains. runs great, and Im right around sea level too. 477383[/snapback] i had a brand new plug foul in 5 min from running it rich Quote
greg_banshee Posted February 24, 2006 Report Posted February 24, 2006 i'd check your spark plug caps, i had something similar happen to me cause i was running it one day and then like an hr after running it started to run very shitty like spitting & sputtering and then the right side just died and the left side was kinda half running ... and it turned out to be the spark plug caps after trying plugs, checkin reeds, etc... but i duno i'd change them cause there cheep (3$ each).

Banshee~ Posted February 26, 2006 Report Posted February 26, 2006 You might be running a little rich. Take the airbox lid off and see if that helps, if it does then put it back on and go down a size on the main. Quote
