Dgrey Posted August 19, 2007 Report Posted August 19, 2007 The main jet on the right side carb slides in and out to the piece that it screwes into. I am pretty sure this is NOT how it should be. What am I doing wrong? I checked on a friends bike and this is not the case. The actual piece that the jet screws into moves up and down within its hole. Please let me know if this carb is completely broken . Quote

You are missing some kind of washer that holds it in there. Quote
Dgrey Posted August 19, 2007 Author Report Posted August 19, 2007 Well you were right about the washer. that is in there now. Now I want to know why the left side is running fine and the right side spits out almost pure gas unless I really rev it then it smokes a little Quote

Dgrey Posted August 20, 2007 Author Report Posted August 20, 2007 Okay so I got the bike to idle and all that. At idle it seems fine. So I had the 350 jets that my builder told me to use as a starting point and I take it down the street and as soon as its hitting the power band its cutting out and I even heard a pop I think from the pipes. So I put the 340 jet in thinking that maybe the other jet was to big and go down the street and it does the same thing and I think I heard a pop again. So I go to take out the plugs and the left side plug looks pretty normal ya know a little black and a little oil. The right side plug comes out and looks as if it was still bran new even a little white so now I have no clue what to do the right side is not running correctly. This is not a jetting issue becase the left side seems to be fine. am I right? What could it be! Quote
FasterThanU90 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Posted August 20, 2007 do u kno how to use a multi meter? Quote
Dgrey Posted August 20, 2007 Author Report Posted August 20, 2007 do u kno how to use a multi meter? Yes, sir. How can I use a multimeter to hlep me in this situation. Are you thinking the may be a problem with the ricky stator? Do you know about all the mods that I just got done doing to the bike??? Quote
samc Posted August 20, 2007 Report Posted August 20, 2007 yeah man deff the washer, maybe your float is sticking in the one carb? Quote
FasterThanU90 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Posted August 20, 2007 yea i do kno ur mods.. since u were asking about the porting...... ur having a hell of a time. no not ur stator ur ignition system have u checked spark. Do u Have a Service Manual?? Quote
FasterThanU90 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Posted August 20, 2007 check ur plug gap that could cause the rev to break up. Quote
. Posted August 21, 2007 Report Posted August 21, 2007 is it not running on the right side at idle and stuff, and then coming in but running like crap when you rev it? Quote
Justintoxicated Posted August 21, 2007 Report Posted August 21, 2007 First thign I would do is try swapping the plug wires. Then you know if it is electrical or mechanical. Quote
FasterThanU90 Posted August 21, 2007 Report Posted August 21, 2007 just give up and burn it to the ground. Quote
TJ10 Posted August 21, 2007 Report Posted August 21, 2007 I don't think that the jet is your problem. I was having trouble with my right carb leaking gas out the overflow because my float was sticking. When I took it apart, I had the same problem you're having. There should be a washer that holds the jet in place. Anyway, I cleaned everything up and it doesn't leak anymore and I'm not having any troubles having the "broken" main jet. Also, it doesn't really sound like your float is the problem as i think someone mentioned. The float sticking shouldn't effect gas flow to the cylinder. Quote
swrbansheeboy Posted August 22, 2007 Report Posted August 22, 2007 First thign I would do is try swapping the plug wires. Then you know if it is electrical or mechanical. words of wisdom. this will tell you where you need to focus your trouble shooting efforts. if you swap plug wires and the problem changes cylinders then it's electrical. if not then it's most likley a fuel delivery problem either carburation or fuel supply. sound's like your running lean on your right cylinder since you said the plug looked brand new. usualy if it's a spark problem the plug will still be a bit wet and your pipe will load up with unburnt fuel...
