shutting off WOT

[mr_3_0_5]

what could cause the bike to just cut out when running mid to WOT. it fire's back up fine after 10 seconds or so. the float needle kept sticking so i got a rebuild kit this is a stock carb with tors, idles fine. jets are clean ive cleaned the main like five times, the pilot is new, new gas and oil.. im stumped..
almost seems like it runs good till the bowl runs out then it dies.. wait a second for the bowl to fill and it fires up and rev fine.. the problem only seems to happen after running it WOT to mid range.. ive adjusted the float both for more gas and less in the bowl and no luck..

I think it may be the tors acting up, but you've probably already deleted that right??
If not check the little button that is between the throttle lever and the throttle box, might be sticking.

floats not set right?? suckin the fuel up?? fires back up 10 seconds later or so cos the bowl fills back up???

i know when i had mine before i built it and the cdi box came loose and it cut out in top end

ill check that and fed that was my thought to so i bent the tab so much it came out the overflows then bent it back a touch.. that bowl should be filled to its max..

maybe check for some loose wires

Make sure you have a good flow going into the carb and petcocks not plugged alittle.

yeah make sure you have good fuel flow

I would say check the fuel flow.

sounds like u are running ur carb outta fuel at WOT

get yourself a banshee petcock(made to feed 2 carbs), and some 5/8 fuel line, leave a 1/2" of the stock size line on the carb, slip the new bigger stuff over it and clamp
flows like a mo-fo

 

[mr_3_0_5]

it free flows from the petcock.. ive been around this site and these bikes for some time now and this has me stumped.. i agree with everyone the symptoms are that its running out of gas at WOT. ive adjusted the float 10 times by now.. can the bowl have too much gas? wouldnt it just come out the overflows then.. if i was sure its a carb issue id just buy a new carb but now im not so sure.

 

[blasterracer817]

its not yur bike is it if so i think u need a bigger carb haha

 

[mr_3_0_5]

no this is my girls bike i sold and my buddy rebuilt it..

I see you have one of those stubby vent hoses. I have had problems in the past with the ball inside not working properly. Just another idea.

 

[brandoz28]

thats a good idea^^^^^ try it with the gas cap loose, or another good cap

 

[mr_3_0_5]

the petcock free flows.. i dumped all the gas in the tank through it cause i wanted to run fresh gas.. it free flowed till it was empty..
i gonna try my boys stock carb and see what happens.
