sredish Posted March 25, 2004 Report Share Posted March 25, 2004 I agree that you need to FEEL the pilot. When the pilot is dialed in right, you'll have great response. Same with the needle. When the needle is dialed in right, the machine feels better, you can feel when it's not coming in correctly. Trial and error is the very key to jetting. Glad to hear that you got your problem solved. Always feels good to go through the machine, do what you need to do and it comes out running like a badass. Congrats.

banshdog Posted March 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 hmmmm...... ok everything is in place and the bike runs fine. In the FAQ i read that you should warm the bike up, put fresh plugs in and then let it idle for 10 min. then chek the color of the plugs to see if the pilots and air screws are set correctly. did that the first time and both plugs came out clean, real clean. so i turned the air screws in and did it again. this time pulled the plugs out and the left side was black, but the right side was still clean as a whistle. i adjusted the left side again to make it more lean, but the right side air screw is basically all the way in, so i cannot make it any more richer. Also the right side seems to be spitting out alot of oil from the exhaust. is it possibly just not seated completely? maybe no spark? but its running fine i think that the left side is pretty close to being good, but what about the right? could a plugged pilot jet be the problem? I have heard that running lean causes excess heat, dont wanna do that. any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
