WITH REGARD TO YOUR OIL LEAK CHECK SUMP DRAIN PLUG , OIL PRESS SENDER ,OIL COOLER PIPES. TRY CHECKIN WHEN THE MOTOR IS RUNNING AND UP TO TEMP.THAT WAY ANY DRIP OR OIL TRACE WILL BE EASILY SPOTTED.

HI JUNKER IVE GOT SOME WIRING DIAGRAMS WILL TRY AND SCAN OFF . THX CHRIS

HI ALL QUICK UPDATE SORTED THE PROB WITH THE CHIRPING NOISE .IT WAS THE CARBS SUCKIN AIR THROUGH THE RUBBER PORTS.CLEANED CARBS AND RE SEATED TO ENGINE .RUNS OK NOW. JUST WAITIN FOR GOOD WEATHER FOR ROAD TEST .

hi guys FITTED THE XJ600 ENGINE TO THE FZ TODAY .THE ENGINE RUNS .I CONNECTED ALL WIRES NO PROBS. I USED THE ORIGINAL FZ600 CDI IGNITOR CHANGED NO WIRING . THE RED AND GREEN WIRE ON THE LOOM FOR THE FZ IS THE ONLY DIFFERANCE .THEY ARE THE WIRES TO THE CARBON BRUSHES IN THE ALTERNATOR.THE XJ600 ENGINE HAS NO CARBON BRUSHES IN THE ALTERNATOR THAT I CAN SEE. BUT BOTH UNITS ARE THREE PHASE. THE RECTIFIER I THINK IS THREE PHASE SEEMS TO WORK WITH THEM NOT CONNECTED. SO ABSOLUTLEY NO MAJOR CHANGES THAT IM AWARE OF .THE ONLY PROBLEM THERE SEEMS TO BE IS THE ENGINE RUNS AND IDLES UP AND DOWN ROUGH BUT REVS UP WELL UNDER THROTTLE. CHOKE IS ALSO OUT OF SNC. THERE IS ALSO A VERY LOUD CHIRPING NOISE IT GETS QUICKER WHEN THROTTLE IS GIVEN. IS THIS A CARB FAULT ECT.....ANY ADVICE HELP WOULD BE GREAT. BUT THE CONVERSION FROM THE FZ600 TO THE XJ600 ENGINE CAN BE DONE WITH NOT MUCH FUSS OR MODS. MANY THANKS TO YOU ALL CHRIS

HI NATH IVE ALSO GOT A 88 MODEL FZ600 WITH A KNACKERED ENGINE. BOTH THE FZ600 AND XJ600 ARE AIR COOLED (WITH OIL COOLER ON THE FRONT OF ENGINE. IM GONNA TRY AND PUT THE XJ600 ENGINE IN THE FZ. THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS ARE DIFFERENT. THE ALTERNATOR IS ON TOP OF THE GEARBOX ON THE FZ ENGINE.THE XJ600 ITS ON THE SIDE . THE FZ HAS ONE MORE EXTRA WIRING PLUG RED AND GREEN FROM THE ALTERNATOR THAN THE XJ600 ENGINE. ARE THERE ANY CHANGES OR MODS I WILL HAVE TO DO TO MAKE THIS CHANGE WORK.WILL I HAVE TO CHANGE THE CDI IGNITER ? LOOM ECT . IVE ORDERED A WORKSHOP MANUAL TO GET SOME INFO. POSSIBLE WIRING DIAGRAMS. ANY HELP OR INFO FROM YOU GUYS WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL. THANKS CHRIS
