Hi Chris I'm a bike mechanic by trade in Denmark First of all, you should clean the small pilot/idle jets in the carbs (They have a TINY hole, so they get clogged very easy, even if the floatbowl looks in perfect condition), after that i would do a sync of the throttlebodies, and a valveclearence adjustment, this is easily done on this engine, no new parts needed, just a few feelergauges. I'm very confident, that the problem is with the idle/pilot circuit in the carbs, but also doing the valves/TB sync, will most likely make it run like a new machine :-) I hope this helps, and you are welcome to contact me for more advice if you want to. big fan of your work.
@runeagnarhjorrh9063 жыл бұрын
oh!! oh!! while i remember! The Pri on the fueltap is for priming the fuelsystem, it will bypass the vacum tap (wich only allow fuel to the carbs while the engine is running/producing vacum in the intake port) It is very important not to drive around on PRI on the tap, because it will allow the engine to fill up with petrol in the crankcase, if the float valves dont close properly. this can cause catastrophic engine failure (bent connection rod etc.) Also while I'm still writing; I'm not sure if the Kawa carbs has acceleration pumps, for a snappy throttle, this could also be the problem if they are present, but dont work. It will cause the bike to die on snapping the throttle as well as a clogged pilot/idle system would. Again, hopes this will help :-)

@orvillenorth88153 жыл бұрын
It doesn’t matter what the fuel is set on if the needle valve seals are good. The crankcase won’t fill up with fuel while it’s running. The only reason the crankcase fills up is when fuel is left on and the needle valve seals are no good. It allows fuel to keep flowing into the cylinder and leaking past the rings into the case.

One way I narrow down fueling issues is adding about a half a can of sea foam to about a gallon of gas. With its lower vapor point it sticks around in the cylinder a bit after ignition and kind of averages out the fuel input since it doesnt burn off as quick. If you have a jetting or carb issue and it runs better with seafoam, it narrows it down to that. If it does not run better, then next place to look timing or valves. With the timing that far off for so long, some carbon buildup may have formed on the valves which is maybe why they felt tight, but once that burns off, the could be loose again. But try the seafoam first, then if needed, giv'r an italian tune-up before checking the valves again.

Popping, backfiring and getting slightly better then more it works, in conjunction with the choke helping it to run right are huge indicators that it's running lean.

Rule of thumb, "When working on a motorcycle, use an impact screwdriver too avoid stripping out the screws". Peace!

Just a tip for ya. Whenever mounting a tire not on a machine or in a cage Always set the bead with the tire in the vertical position. If something ever goes wrong and the back side bead pops or blows off and sends that rim into a low earth orbit at least your face won't be in the way. I had this happen to me when I was a lot younger trying to mount a set of tires on my Dakota rims. Well the back side blew off and the tires went straight up hit a 25 ft ceiling breaking both my hands before coming to rest on a hood of a Pepsi truck.

Yeah I understand about the homemade projects there's a time and a place when you take them out and when you're going out with a lot of buddies that's not the time to take a homemade project out because there will be stuff that happens and it's nice to have good running stuff when you go out with your buddies so they're not waiting for you and plus it's nice to have something that runs good in case you need it during your test in tune days on your homemade vehicle that's what we tend to do down here in Central Florida love the content keep it up you're a great fabricator one of the best when it comes to the go-kart game sorry for one long sentence don't feel like going through and fixing it

Brake clean can fix vacuum leaks. It’ll suck the brake clean in and clean the junk causing a leak. As long as the line is split open. Sounds like it needs a little air/fuel tuning.
