Jereme6655 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 zx10.......im really straining to be nice right now...haha....so sorry if i come off as a prick. Fastbanshee8 already GAVE you the answer to your problem! Let me guess....you put the pipes on and after you switched back the slides in the carbs it will BARELY run on 2 cylinders while your standing there trying to keep it idling......but as soon as you get on the throttle the left pipe (usually left one) starts cutting out and wont fire but as soon as you get into the powerband the pipe comes to life and your off and screamin right? ITS THE PILOT JET. Get yourself a 27.5 pilot and it'll clear all the problems up.....hell it'll be a new damn bike as soon as you put them in. Sorry if i get a little rough about it.......just gets frustrating when you see the answer and it either gets ignored or people try and fix something that's related to the real problem.....creating a different problem.

I backed the needle back one notch leaner. I then pulled the air box off, and attempted to get the carbs sync'd right... the left carb was starting to open sooner. i ended up getting them spot on with eachother. I had to back the throttle cables out a tad out of the top of the carb to do this. I went to start the damn thing after i put it back together... and it wouldn't even start. Jereme, keep in mind... i ran this thing on the stock pilots, after i put the pipes on it, and it idled fine. That is why i didn't want to stop quessing at the pilot jet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camatv Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 i have had them run just fine on the stock pilots.... put the neelde in the 4th clip one richer than the middle, and YOU HAVE TO ACTULLY SYNCH THE CARBS WITH A SYNCHRONIZER. many many many times after someone has takent he carbs on and off and messed with them off the bike and reinstall them they screw them up really badly twisted throttle cable, messed up slides, screwed up TORRS i have had the tors internals break from over tightening trying to get them to idle ( they only go so far) it somettimes takes someon with real experience with the torrs system and what all to look for to fix the issue's you are having.. i am sure if it was here i could figure it all out for you but there are SO many variables as to whats actually going on its hard to do over the internet..

Jereme6655 Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 haha...okay zx10.....alot better mood now. yea ive seen them idle fine with the stock pilot and FMF's.....but as soon as you start to throttle up it'll usually kill one cylinder until you get the RPMs up a little higher...then that other pipe will fire again and itll run hard. its runnin lean.....i ran through this exact same thign on my bike......just about ripped my hair out cause of the lack of performance/bog issue and the misfire... but when i found out what it was i wanted to cry cause it was like a $6 fix and the thing screamed after that...

zx10rcobra Posted February 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 I wouldnt doubt that i fucked up my TORS... what exactly do i need to get rid of it completely? I already saw everything about drilling and tapping the carb for the idle screw... what do i need to ditch the other stuff? new throttle cables? I think it may be a prob with mine because the TORS unit on the carb on the right side is loos (i can spin it side to side with the carb top tight) thanks!

zx10rcobra Posted February 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 edit: i just found the kit from vitos... hopefully it gets here soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jereme6655 Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 yea its a new kit that includes the carb toppers and new cables. Just make sure you unplug the TORS brain-box that is under the gas tank on the left side of the frame...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
