husky Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 Trying to install a adjustable timing plate, can some one tell me how to tell what my timing is @? I want to go with +4.. Quote
Bansh-eman Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 you set your timing by the case halfs.... so on the plate the tick marks put the plate at +4 at the case halfs and tighten it down... Quote
thegroup Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 align the +4 mark on the stator with the split in the case Quote

Bansh-eman Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 no you should be good... unless your running a shitload of timing whcih your not your going ot be fine... Quote
LiftdT4R Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 Will i need to adjust anything else after I start the shee? You shouldnt, the engine might run a little hotter, I have heard of some people going up a size on the mains to compensate, but I never had to, but youll really have to listen for it. Where on earth did you get camo plastics for your shee? I have never seen that before. Quote

I found that on my right side I have a leak in my pipe on one of the welds, would this cause the bike to run to rich? Quote
Bansh-eman Posted November 21, 2006 Report Posted November 21, 2006 i havent heard if a leaking pipes making it run rich...you didnt open your carbs or anything did you? if you did check and make sure you got matching jets... also make sure your float isnt sticking.. Quote

I did install the jets Saturday but ran perfect that day and I also just checked the ramaining jets and they are all the same. I will have to check the floats next... Quote

I will have to check the floats next... I got the bike to run properly..What it was, no clue..I took the carbs apart today and cleaned everything up and blew it all out now runs perfectly. I assume something got in their or the floats may have been sticking...Thanks for all the input. Quote
