Some how I lost my posted thread:
just put completely cleaned and overhauled carbs on my 79SF; the following happens:
- will fire but will not idle smooth; running on 2 or 3 cyl
- open the throttle, it will chocke then rev up with thrtll wide open
- once underway, it will rocket from a standstill and keep going, until I throttle back and hold at any rpm for cruise
- it will miss and hesitate
- pull the choke, it will idle smooth, but at 2-3k rpm
- on a hot engine, normally pulling the choke should kill the engine??!
- i had another carb before this one and the bike ran perfectly
- no prior electrical issues
- I am pretty versed with these carbs and have had success
- I am stumped now
Advice please?!
