9banshee6 Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 well the other day i took off my filter to check my carb slides too see if they were equal and they weren't so i did my best to make them equal so i rode it without the filter it was running better but still not right so when i put the filter back on hoping it was going to work better it was worse! it boggs out at about at 1/4 of the throttle and i just had my jetting done what do you guys think?

00sheerzr Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 if it gets better with the filter off it means you are too rich, try to back the air screw out a half a turn and see if that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lower your needle and see if that helps. You lower your needle by raising your clip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banchetta Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Is your tors disconnected? Unplug the 3-wire plug by the front left exhaust. You don't need it and it does affect off idle symptoms like yours..If thats not it. Your shee should run the same w/ or w/o the air filter w/ the air box cover off...If it runs worse w/ the filter, then your filter is dirty or gummed up. If its a K&N filter. Don't use dish soap. It will ruin the filter. DON'T over oil your filter.. If it still runs bad after, then lower your needles like others suggested. Raise the clip to lower the needle..What clip position are your needles at now? What mods do you have as well as jetting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What mods do you have as well as jetting? well that sux cause every time i clean it i use dish soap.im not sure what position i have my needles at as a matter of fact i dont even know anything about the needles . how many positions are there? how much would i have to raise the clip ? how do i raise the clip? and what do they look like both the clip and the needle the only mods i have are fmf fattys and silencers , k&n filter, boost-bottle which i hear that does absolutely nothing and im pretty sure its ported.

Have you disconnected the tors yet?? Takes 2 seconds and saves a lot of headaches. The needles are located under the carb tops. Pull the spring back and shake the gold clip out. The spring will now come off and you can get to the 2 philip screws. Take them out w/ the metal piece. Your needle will now come out. There are 5 clips. Stock setting is the 3rd clip. Most fmf pipes like the 4th clip from the top (blunt end)...Porting can throw that off though..so you might need to be at the 2nd or 3rd clip...I'd check the tors first though.

Banchetta Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 well were is it connected to?and why dosent it need to be connected? Its a 3-wire plug by the front left exhaust pipe. Unplug it. Its supposed to act like a rev limiter in case your throttle sticks open..They fail all the time and cause the motor to act like a rev limiter. I've also seen them cut off the spark 100%..I've seen shees only 1 year old have them fail...They're junk and useless..Trust me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
