SATANSAM

Hope so, I'm putting these carbs in MY motor 1st anyway to make sure it isn't the carbs, AGAIN!

Got it! Really looks like it's done 24000kms, and the bike only had 1 MOT done in 1998,after that it sat in a garage till today. Not bad for 450bux

Going to see an exactly the same bike as mine 100km from here for 450€ (400 pounds aprox). Motor has 24.000kms, carbs with new kits...Worth a look!

Yep, but the foam is new too, everything spotless... I bought all 4 airbox boots in case one ofem wasn't sealing properly, having different amount of air into that one carb making the balancing impossible... We'll see anyway....

¿Can we upload videos here???

Thank U so much Panzer and Tony. Yes, I'll start from 0 with the blimming 40jets...I a real amateur but man...2hours waiting for the fckn tower, gotta mend this bitch. Beer time, thanx amigos.

Thanx a lot man, bike stopped coming back home from work, bike is 1,5.turns and loox like it's drowned in petrol... Yep,.

I can get all gauges with the same readings but goes up to about 2200rpm, it can only idle more or less when unbalanced but of course, when throttle blimped it returns down very slowly, VERY.

I WISH...Cable has slang, butterflies snap closed...But I'll make a new cable anyway. On thing I found out riding is the following: - When I stop at a traffic light 4 example, if I have the idle screw without touching throttle shaft the bike idles down and eventually dies..If I screw it in just a bit more than touching she revs up to about 1800rpm. Could it be that the needle slides rise up by some reason?

Well, I've given the bitch a ride today after 7 bloody months....Managed to lower her down with lean mix on mix screws (1,5 turns out). I pur some tape on 2 air box manifolds to carbs where were some small cracks (on the end of the manifolds stuck to the carbs)....Anyway, riding the bike the idle was very unestable of course...Ir went up or down slowly and died if I didn't blimp the throttle. Like very "organic", like an air leak, but must be on those airbox manifolds. I finaly found 4 in good condition, fckin 70 bux but had to gettem.Receivin them in a 2 weeks. Motor runs well, power in lows mids and highs,just needs the blimming problem solved and tune up...Riding the bike I feel the problem is not so damn catastrophic. Anyway, beer time. By the way RickLee, the caps are spotless but thanx anyway m8!

Yep, al in its place, caps tested coilspppffff

Thanx Panzer! That sounds good man, but I can't see any links sorry m8

Well basically what happens is that the bike, to have all 4 carbs synced, has to be around 2000rpm or more, When throttle blimped 4 gauges act the same...4 carbs with new seals (even throttle shaft seals) butterflies spot on, new needle valve, needle and Oring, spot on float height, 4 carbs in UC, carb cleaner and compressed air...Intake boots to cyl head correct (no response with break cleaner, carb cleaner, contact cleaner or propane) but air box boots are a bit crappy, and can't find any (no stock and hardly any 2nd hand). I personally don't think airbox boots could cause such shit, I've balanced carbs without airbox with no hanging issues, actually the opposite. Thanx, I'm going to get drunk and buy a tractor.

I bought one too, but doesn't seem 3 B my problem... I THIN I'M THE PROBLEM.

R we talking bout beer?

Dammit I'm thinking the same as you, but vacuum port (for petcock) from number 2 is blocked and fuel line goes to refference cylinder number 3...All 4 vacuum sync ports are closed with thei screws and copper rings...But yes, it looks like something so stupid that when I find out I'll get drunk & commit suicide.

I know I'm a pain in the arse...But I started the bitch this morning, starts easy and revs are OK cold (dies slowly if choke not used and it's very warm here in Spain), ...Revs go straight down when blimp't the throttle with cold motor...It's when warm when she fckn hangs specially when throttle blimped...At least it's better than before...I wanted to buy the airbox boots but out of stock...No second hand....I disconected spark caps 1 by 1 yesterday, all exactly the same...BUT spark 3 is clear compared with all the rest that are pitch black. Something going in in that 3...the 2 is OK.

Is that a chinese cheap kit? I've seen friends using them but they often don't stick to the specs from the dealer...I'm no expert, that's why I've got a 12 page topic! But I don't like the look of that screen filter...HAve a look and see if you can match original plastic filters on them. A part from that, needle must simply be put in the valve and will be basically always be in touch with the fliat "tounge"

Correct! And in case you don't know, apply a thin layer of grease on the valve Oring before fitting it in the carbMan, I'm so posed to be the one with doubts here!

Yep, I've sealed everything,sprayed with contact cleaner (the best response after starter spray) and nothing...Cylinder 3 runs leaner than the rest....Carbs spotless....What the heck!

Hitachi not Toshiba hahaha...Gonna try them again...But as you say, going to test the signal cables, connectors...

Thanx Dezza, gonna try that tomorrow,ice got 2 new Toshiba coils at home

Thanx Pud. With 4 butterflies benchsynced with a soldering wire (for example)as measurement, all totally closed or open up to the 1st hole before butterfly.. there is not much space for bad balancing (nearly spot on) and to be honest, balancing,2, 3 or 4 carbs isn't that misterious...thanx anyway Pud.

Mornin' amigos! Long time no speak...I've started with the suzi again, from the beginning, like a retarded (like always). As I've got 3 sets of carbs, all clean 100%., with UC, carb cleaner and compressed air. All diaphragms perfect, gaskets too. Bech sync and mounted with air box and intake manifolds perfectly sealed...All jets correct size, choke working correctly... Valve clearence correct, compression 160 each so correct. I'm getting a set of carbs in with new throttle shaft viton rings and correct butterfly positions, now Vitons are the only part I can think about....Air lieak like most of you say. Bike synced, fuel screws 2,5 turns out (and more!), idle at about 2000rpm, I close the air filtet intake with my fingers and of course it loweres down...So excess of air... Anyway, if anybody has a last tip...I might be near success or storing the bike...This bike uses a CDI so I don't think it can be anything to do with advanced timing (I've tried 3 CDIs already!). Cheerz!

No marks on any of the pistons...Weird...
