Ok, hop on the blasty and give it a kick.. fires up instantly...

give it gas it bogs down to stop..

feather the gas..quickly striking it and it climbs to a full rev limit..

BUT

it smokes badly and starts backfiring... not constantly but every 3-5 seconds.

new 93 gas
good filter
carbs cleaned ( i didnt touch a screw on the carb itself )
re-checked the carb and made sure the slide,needle and everything is correct.

spanking new plug.

what could it be..

if its the air idle screw can someone walk me through a few steps??

any information would be highly appreciated..

thanks in advance...
 
yea.. i spoke to a friend at work and hes was a master tech for a local polaris shop.. he thinks its either reeds or or a jet... told me it sounds like a clogged jet and told me to pull the carb again and clean it well then yes yb...screw the air screw in and start with .5 turns going out and go from there.

if nothing happens its v-force time..
 
done..their fine :( almost wish they werent so i could pin point the issue..

Now... i called the yamaha shop and they ran my vin through their data base.. Seems the bike has been their several times for the same reason...WATER ISSUES...

now.. thank god i know the service manager there from high school... he told me he worked on this things alot actually and that he thinks its 1 of 2 things...water in the carb.. however unlikely or (b) WATER OR MOISTER IN THE STATOR...which this to me seems more likely... now im going to replace the reeds (going to need them anyway for the portwork ) stator cover gasket and take the carb completely apart and clean the bowels out completely.. that SHOULD get it..

anything else i am forgetting or should do???
 
well heres the deal....

called my friend back at yamaha.. ordered a new stator cover,bolts and gasket. i should of looked this thing over WELL before i bought it.. looked closely to the stator just before going to work.. well not only is the cover cracked on bottom...its got guess what....water in it!!! not alot.. but several drops came out of the cover when i pulled it off..

to boot.... 2 bottom screws...stripped out COMPLETELY.. had a rough time getting the screws to come out + noticed black gasket sealant caked on the inside.. lovely.

now for the carb....going to pull it off AGAIN. and this time check the bowl.. i didnt last time because it was clean for the most part and if the bowl comes apart im f****ed trying to get it back together again,...

the stator cover HAD to be whats been going on as far as the mis idle after it getting wet..this issue will get taken care of in the morning...
 
aaaahhhh HAAA!!!!!

WELL I REMOVED AND UNPLUGED THE TORS at the connection... not realizing it would complete a circuit by doing so..so after taring the carb,reeds and everything else known to man apart i tried to start it... it ran but wouldnt rev...plugged in the tors connection and waaalaaa... rruuuuuuummm ruuuuummm it works..

now question.. how can i make it work without the tors plugged in...

running from the bars.. follow the lead to a grey/white connector.. unplug that then do what??

btw.. the blasty runs GREAT NOW since i pulled everything apart and cleaned it lol..

thanks in advance
