Hard to start cover the carbs with my hands starts right up idles a 2000 then redlines. Put the air box back on to see if it would help still did the same thing any help would be greatly appreciated
I pulled the carbs off and looked down into the valves and both intake and exhaust valve is stuck open on the third cylinder any idea why that could be?
Welcome to the forum... Not sure why both valves would be open, but if you have a faulty cylinder head i have one i ordered for my bike and didnt use it. Send me a message ill give u a great deal on it comes with cams cover bolts.... its a complete setup. Good Luck
Idle adjust screw is all the way turned out. Took the air box off covered my hands over it crank it over it starts and idles at 4000 and doesn't come back down. I put the air box back on and it doesn't start. I took the carbs off cleaned them out gas looked like jelly cleaned every part in the carbs pilot screws jets everything purview the carbs back on and replaced fuel pump now the bike won't start at all just big loud back fires. I also can't sync the carbs till I can get it to run I did a little Bench sync to get me in the ball park to hopefully make it atleast start up so I can vacuum gauge it but it just cranks and backfires but won't start anymore. Oh and also turned the air fuel mixture screws all the way in and about 3 turns out I can't get nothing out of it anymore. What do you guys think it could be?
It sounds like its flooding now. Check your spark. Try starting fluid. Check your petcock for jelly. Rinse the tank. Change your fuel filter.
I had to soak my carb parts for 6 hours in a gallon can of carb cleaner with a basket to do the trick on a 86 fz750 that thing had jelly in the whole fuel system. I had to do it twice because i didnt wait long enough the first time.
I'll try it and let ya know what happens thanks for the help
