c1poweredeg Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 What's up hq another jetting and carb question. Ok before when I installed the new parts on to te shee... it was 28mm pwks 148 and 48 jets,vforce 3 reeds,new intake boots and new clamps. After kicking the bike over 2 times it would start but idle really high, so I thought I had a leak, I resealed everything but the bike still idles high as hell setting on the adustment screw are to spec and then some after some tweaking . But I still can't get the bike to idle correctly . Do you think it could be the jets ? I livee on statenisland if anyone is close leave me ur info. Thanks a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c1poweredeg Posted October 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Are you sure the cable adjuster on top of carbs are adjusted correctly? I was told to be able to slide a dime between the cable and adjuster... is that correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, make sure your thumb throttle is not adjusted out to far. This would also cause high idle. People bring banshees to me all the time for idle/carb problems. Its usually a bad adjustment.

CGR fmxer Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 X2. Check your adjustment on everything. check the vacuum tube that goes between the carbs and make sure thats connected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jereme6655 Posted November 3, 2010 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 your bike is running with a leak still.... a leak will cause the high idle and lean the motor out....then the after effect is heat from being lean and hi-revved.....this will cause detonation and dieseling (which your running into)..... it wont shut down because its hot enough from running lean that it is "self" igniting itself instead of waiting for the sparkplug to ignite your a/f mix. Have you done a leakdown test on your motor? you can use a leakdown test to help descern weather you have a airleak and also to find the leaks BEFORE you fire it up....
