Warper4evr Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I just bought a 1995 yzf 600 and the bike would not idle it would just shut off but if you get it into the higher rpms it runs pretty smooth. I can puill on the choke and it will stay on. I took it apart and saw that the rubber boots under the carbs were dry rotted and put new ones on and put it back together and stated it up again and now when i pull the choke it will only idle at 1000 rpm but when i first got it and pulled the choke it would idle at 2500 to 3000 rpm like it should i stilll think it is getting to much air but i dont know where i think i put on the rubber boots right i was thinking maybe i didnt and maybe the o ring isnt sitting tight and it is leaking there but i have run out of ideas if anybody can give my any it would be great thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
