Hello again, Just wondering My new battery keeps going down and just checking things out an found that the 2 terminals on each horn both are hot with a test ...
Yes both horns are hot all the time. The other wire goes to the horn button. The horn button provides the ground for the circuit. This should not cause problem...
... cleaning,Replacing termials etc..Just moving around the harness plug under the fuses made the white light on the dash finally light up so I will go through...
Am I correct that the infamous mixture screw is the one under the cap on the front right shoulder of each carb. The cover on the left shoulder appears to be...
No, they are both primary mixture screws (or idle mixture). The deceleration circuit only affects the left hand barrel of each carb - but I don't know how it...
Ok Bill. On the front top of the carb in the center I believe as I recall there is the choke enricher. It is activated by the choke lever. NOw on each side of...
Thanks Larry and David, I went ahead and pulled the carbs and did the whole DynoJet Phase one installation, except for the slide weights. I replaced the...
I finished the reassembly this morning and took it out for a spin. The choke/enricher sure works differently. It wouldn't idle for the longest time without the...
I am changing from stock exhaust to a 6 to 1 system. What changes will I need to make to the carbs to getthe engine to work correctly with this exhaust?...
I found smaller main jets was the ticket. I cannot remember now but 105 or maybe 102.5. You will just have to try and see. Ran pretty crisp then. I do believe...
Well I try and remember but I left the Gas on.I took off that gas shut off solinoid already.Alot of fuel on my floor.The starter solinoid just clicks and it...
l have a 1980...i understand that year does not have notches on the needles? ... From: LC <nitridr@...> To: KawaSixes@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, June...
re building a 1980 kz. it runs smooth at over 3000 but will barely idle even with the idle knob turned as far as it goes. anyone have any ideas why this is...
Idle passages full of trash or clogged, pilot circuit clogged or full of trash. Did this bike sit for a while? Bet so. Soulds like it. Take carbs off. remove...
... Been there mate. Sounds like you have blown or lifted the head gasket. Leaking float valve assemblies. Fuel overflows into the intake manifolds, and...
Take out all of your spark plugs and turn the engine over for 10 or 15 seconds and then put the plugs back in.It probably will be ok. When it starts let it run...
One very possible reason it won't turn over is that it may be "hydro-locked" with fuel. I have heard of people actually bending connecting rods because they...
Sounds just like my 81. I let it sit for a year and the sumps that the pickups for the idle circuit stick down into got plugged. A couple of shots with some...
Interesting...I wondered what those pickups were for. I noticed that 2 of mine have small "jets" at the end of the pickup tube but 1 of them was just an open...
Those are supposed to have the pilot jets in them. They are very small hole and are threaded. About 3/16 inch in diameter. The actual pilot jet is about 3/6...
Hi Mike, I have a set of spare carbs from an 80 and all three pick up tubes have jets in them. I wish I had my camera but I left it at the shop so I can't post...
I am not talking about the pilot jets under the screws....I am talking about the long brass tubes that you see after taking the bowl off. They fit into a small...
Hi Mike, All my brass tubes have small jets in the ends. I may not know what to call them but, I do know that if the wells these tubes fit into are plugged up...
