Soldier on
Did a few more tries today:
Sprayed the most potent carb cleaner druing tickover... F***all results
Switched slides
then carbs
F ALL!
out of rage, i took the 2 grottiest looking T250 26mm carbs I had lying around, didn't even wash them... and plugged them in.
Guess what?
same result!
So I guess the carbs aren't the prob, the motor is.
The only thing I haven't changed (for lack of funds) is the inner crank seals...
For you all experts out there, is it possible for bad inner seals to upset carburation at idle that much... I mean from 0-to 5k?
When bike is dead cold, it feels like you could adjust the idle (stays around 3k) but once warmed up, it just creeps higher to 5k No amount of tweaking will lower it. The idle screw does have an effect (say lower the idle to 3k) and the choke works... but the hotter it gets, the higher it goes.
