Carb fuel leak
Having some problems with my bike. I'll start from the beginning. Bike is a 93 FZR 600 with 12k miles. When I bought it, the bike ran great but would not idle and was running rich. I drove it like that until now and decided I was tired of keeping it running at a stop light. I removed my carbs and cl...

Re: Electrical issue, what is this part?
Is it ok to buy a used one on Ebay? I saw a guy selling new ones for around 70.
Thanks

I looked back and it was pouring smoke under the tail of the bike. Took the rear ...

Re: Idle issues
Well I tried the starting fluid and I didn't notice any change in idle. I may try synching the carbs, is it hard to do?

Re: Idle issues
Well I messed with the idle screw and all that did was make it hang even worse between shifts. Where should I start looking for vacuum leaks? Would unsynchronized carbs cause this? The bike does run very well, even if you're coasting and pull the clutch in the bike will sit around 1100 and won't die...

Re: Idle issues
I forgot to mention that he told me he thought the problem was the diaphragm sliders in the tops of the carbs.

Re: Idle issues
Ok, I'll try that and report back. He also mentioned it had new plugs because he kept getting them soaked in fuel. I think he showed me that screw and was saying it was a mixture screw and if you adjusted out any higher the bike will rev higher and hang when you shift. Sent from my Motorola Electrif...

Re: Idle issues
I was going to try and adjust the idle this evening. You can smell fuel pretty good
If you are standing behind it and if you rev it really good it will smoke just a bit.

Idle issues
New here, just bought a 93 Fzr600 with 11,000 miles in pretty good shape. The bike runs and rides perfect but it will not idle. The previous owner said he cleaned the carbs 3 times and still couldn't get it to idle. It gets better when the bike warms up but it will idle down to about 800 then stall....
