Zwiser Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 The fly wheel side pipe smokes more than the clutch side pipe, why would this be? no airleaks, pwk 28s with 48 pilots and 148 mains LGN needles on middle clip, both floats set at 19mm, the fuel line tee is even, compression on the fly wheel side is 160, clutch side is 157, the clutch side is packed with 6 S.O.S pads (lol) the fly wheel side is packed with silencer packing that will soon need replaced, the idles arent set the same ( i tried to get them as close as possible but the screws are in a tight spot) So what should i do? should i buy a sync tool and get them sycned up or what?

locogato11283 Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 You can sync them by eye. Plugs are both good? Good spark on both sides? You're not losing coolant are you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwiser Posted September 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 hmm didnt check coolant, ill check that now. plugs should be good but ill replace them and see. i synced them by eye. and ill check the spark then tonight so its easier to see. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwiser Posted September 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 ok i checked to see if it lost any coolant and it hasnt, i changed the plugs and the one on the fly wheel side was "damp" not wet, but the other on is dry. i tried to check to the spark but i couldnt get a good look and the tester but i could see a blue spark going across on both plug caps. But then i took the air filter off and looked down the carbs and the left side wasnt going the whole way down if you pushed the throttle in and slowly let it back down, but if you let it drop it closes the whole way, and if you do this while its running it idles higher if you let it down slowly, and it goes to normal if you let it drop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clean and wd 40 the carb, and u should be good. Also make sure your air screws are set the same amount, and recheck your sync after reassembly.

decon Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Trying to sync carbs by eye can be tricky. I would just buy the sync tool, it really helps out a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
