January 22, 201411 yr Author Sorry dt502001 i no i get all excited with my issues lol but i think iv fixed it now was a carb issue i did a lame ass job of cleaning it i didnt take all jets out the choke or the idle and mix screws out either its was filthy inside those ports i got the trusty haynes manual out to sort it iv ridden bike today seems ok on a short run no cutting out or anything so fingers crossed its fixed thanks for all your help everyone if anything goes wrong ill let you no and try not to act retarded chasing balls lol
January 23, 201411 yr Live and learn next time you say you've cleaned the carb you will be able to say "you cleaned the carb" not just blew some cleaner around and can see why it so important to fully clean the carb. also good you have a sence of humor and could see where I was going with why you were having trouble figuering this out.
January 23, 201411 yr Me to iv been havin nightmares about carbs n jets lolMe too - I was quite apprehensive about stripping mine down til I got inside it and saw just how simple it really can be! Now runs as sweet as (With a bit of help from the guys on here who've been there, done it etc!)
January 23, 201411 yr Author Hiya guys still got same running issue of riding then cutting out the jobs iv done are Air filter cleaned and oiled Carb fully dismantled all jets and ports cleaned choke cleaned Mixture screw port cleaned Idle screw port cleaned Fuel tank cleaned Fuel tap cleaned Inlet manifold cleaned and resealed Any ideas of what to try next thought it was sorted yesterday but its being gay again :'(
January 23, 201411 yr Author Iv got a haynes manual and it shows on the mix screw a washer and rubber seal but mines doesnt have 1 on the mix or idle screw could this be an issue sorry if im bouncy balling again dt502001 lol
January 23, 201411 yr Author Ill try that iv had tap out and cleaned it though and it does it if fuels turned on or on reserve plus the bikes now not running again
January 23, 201411 yr Wait the screw is missing the seal and washer,,what about the spring without it the mixture secrw can vibrate out and mess with you mix. Edit check the amount of turn it's at now vs what you set it at.
January 23, 201411 yr Author Yeah no seal or washer on the mixture screw wasnt on when i dismantled carb like my diagram showed me i checked in the port and it wasnt in there the spring is on though
January 23, 201411 yr Author And i think spark is ok going to double check tomorrow and fit a new plug aswell to eliminate that issue
January 23, 201411 yr Am thinking dirt in fuel tank, as it ran well for short time, now carb could be choked again . run fuel into CLEAN container
January 23, 201411 yr Author Iv had a spark bulb on the plug and spark seems fine constant light no breaks in it even when warm but ill test fuel tomorrow and check spark aswell again
