Re: Running on 3 cylinders | 96 FZR 1000
Looking at these carbs, seems if the jet holder gasket/oring were leaking it could cause your issue. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/11/16/794002275a01d9559bbf17b8c8bbdcdd.jpg With my full car rebuild kit - I replaced those, and all other major seals. I'm really stumped at this stage, I'm going t...

Re: Running on 3 cylinders | 96 FZR 1000

Re: Running on 3 cylinders | 96 FZR 1000
@noodlemonkey just an update, after much tuning, I ended up wiring the exup valve I recently installed open and it seems to be running near perfect. Just a reminder I am running r1 carbs which I learned have some kind of aftermarket jet kit, the needles were all wrong and the mains are 138. I learn...

Re: Running on 3 cylinders | 96 FZR 1000
So I managed to find out why my carbs are dumping mass amounts of fuel, See in this image - there is a choke outlet/inlet hole - Its been pumping fuel from there with or without the choke pulled which has lead to fuel running down the sides of the plastic emulsion tube carriers, http://s23.postimg.o...

Re: Running on 3 cylinders | 96 FZR 1000

Re: Running on 3 cylinders | 96 FZR 1000
Right ladies and gentlemen. It's update time. Okay. So I've had a friend which knows his stuff when it comes to bike have a look at my carbs to find that pretty much all the rubber orings are flat and shot. So I purchased a oring pack from our local auto parts store which we're about to fit and find...

Although these are the only bigger jets I have but will jet down once the bike is running some what alright. Onwards towards an...

Re: Running on 3 cylinders | 96 FZR 1000

Re: Running on 3 cylinders | 96 FZR 1000
okay - so update time, I got the bike out and it started up easier than ever before without the choke - meaning its still running rich - after letting it run for a bit, I tried twisting the throttle and it immediately does nothing - although if i slowly open the throttle it starts to climb, but then...

Re: Running on 3 cylinders | 96 FZR 1000
another quick question - If its running rich with only 1.5 turns out on the adjustment screw - how can I lean it up some more? lift the slide needles? lift the float more? or is this a direct showing that my emulsion tubes are worn?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.
