Snopczynski Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 You guys know not to loosen the pickup screws right? You just bend the tab that the sensor sits on to adjust the gap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snopczynski Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 I had a bike this morning with midrange hesitation and cutting up. Put a stock stator in it, and it runs great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slopoke Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 because, you do loosen the screws to adjust AK i'm with you on that one. By the way what kinda paint is that on your pipes? Does it hold up good without turning a different color? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snopczynski Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 because, you do loosen the screws to adjust I don't, you run the risk of stripping the screw, and it almost always moves when you tighten back down. I just take a screwdriver and bend the sensor on the mounting tab to set the gap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKheathen Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 generally, i use a impact driver on any and all screws. even helps with previously stripped screws. then, i just loosen the screws enough to tap the pickup to speck, and it doesn't move when i tighten it back down. to each, their own. i guess.. :shrug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIM_Whiteboy4life Posted August 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 (edited) ok thread jackers... lol, I swapped the stator out with no avail, stuck the stock CDI on with zero advance on the plate = fail also. NOW since everything has been out of wack on the carbs im not gonna rule it out just yet, im going to sync the carbs with the vac-meter sync tool and fart around with the needle. Maybe snag a different flywheel. EDIT: I still have the stock head on running 110oct SO!!! ima throw the chariot back on with new O rings and what not. Put everything as close as i can back to the way it was before the riding trip, just the pilot will be different and im keepin the stock CDI on it.

AKheathen Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 yah, if you are running stock compression, you should be running 93 octane, or the fuel won't burn as well, and act like your rings are fried. what size domes are in the chariot head?

Snopczynski Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 I have seen more people do harm than good by loosening the screws up on that pickup. I only do it if I am swapping a plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
