Title: SHE IS ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: TheGoodGuy on May 31, 2006, 07:22:29 PM
After god knows how many times back and forth to the dealer.. to get the carb screws..
for some reason the dealer's microfische shows differnet screws.. anyway i went to osh and got some allen bolts for the two outside parts of the caps the inside ones, i used the philips that came with it. Needless to say its works.

I also tried to replace the fuel line (the one suzuki sold me is too long and wont really go on easily), so i cut off the broken part and reinstalled it after rerouting it. It works fine.

Other than that it took a while to sort out teh tubes, since i suddenly found 2 additional tubes, i am like whaaa! then i had to figure things out.. Needless to say it works.

The only thing i have noticed that it backfires a bit, and there is a clacking sound coming from what seems like the exhaust side of the valves when you release teh throttle (more so when cold - this was there last time too) and then there is a oil leak from the bottom.. :( Its smaller than before.. but i am still trying to track it down.

YAY it works!!!!
