So Ive cleaned and jetted the carbs. I replaced the air mixture screws with the longer ones (which are really nice BTW) and at 2.5 turns out, I had zero riding issues last week. Its pulled hard in all the gears, no hesitation coming out of first, no stumble. Everything seemed good. I easily put 50-60 miles on it.
Today I go out and fire her up, go around the corner and she starts to spit and sputter. Went back home and turned the screws out another 1/2 turn for a total of 3 turns out and she was great again.
Our temps outside are that much different from last week. Maybe 15* cooler since I was riding earlier in the day today that last time. Any other ideas?
hadn't warmed up completely yet?
thats where my money's at.
did you balance the carbs too?
Fully warmed. It had sat and idled for a good 15mins as I was checking for fuel leaks and adjusting my clutch cable. I just changed all my fuel lines out so I'm always watching for leaks.
Carbs were very recently balanced
Maybe it was just the temps.
could be a combination of both. cooler air is more dense = lean + it takes a long time for the engine warmth to reach the carbs = leaner (maybe?)
Maybe. I've still got to put on my other pipes with my wide band O2s to dual it in more.
