Not showing and external leaks.. floor is clean. Also I’m using the shee carb. I wonder if my float is off. Could that cause it not to start easy takes about 25 kicks but after that it runs good. 6th gear will kind of bog a bit. Using 230 main jet

Yes incorrect float hight.
Pluged pilot jet
Incorrect air screw setting
Bad reeds
Incorrect idle setting can all lead to hard starting.
Also a bad connection between seat and handlebars( which is you)

I think you have to plug the choke crossover?

Not a plugged pilot jet just rebuilt it, reeds are brand new, I’ll check air screw settings. What do I need to clean up for the connection?

 

[mostdope97]

Also, after I’m done kicking my oil seems to go back to the window

 

[mostdope97]

Thanks for all your help Sly if you weren’t here i wouldn’t of got it going to where it is!!

The connection was a joke.
What makes contact between the seat and handlebars? You.

Hey Sly, I just got the oem carb in from eBay looks like it’s already got tors deleted ?? Bc of the idle screw ? Also I’m going to clean up the carb and put her in tomorrow. that connections good btw lol. Also I was checking it over and noticed my axle nuts were a bit loose.

 

[Slydog]

So the connection is good.
Just check what sizes The jets are. And the needle number. I think the needle# is 5j22? Can't remember off hand.
Needle in clip in middle position works on most setups.
Main jet # is important.have to jet for your pipe and any other mods.

Good catch on the axle nuts. I always check mine

If you have the top cap and throttle cable

 

[mostdope97]

Look at the pics of the carb CANT SCREW the cap on bc the threads are so worn.

 

[mostdope97]

Was able to jimmy rig it for now. Just wanted to rip. Talked to the guy from eBay he’s going to give me a discount on another carb since I cut the cable from tors and tried a new cap. Sorry the pics sideways.

Well how's she running?

 

[mostdope97]

 

[mostdope97]

How’d she sound

 

[Slydog]

How’d she sound

Glad to see it running.Couldn't really tell on the sound?
What pipe is on it ? What main jet is in it?
It's very important to get the jetting right or you may not ride for to long
Read up on jetting and plug chops on the forum.
