Musclecar427 Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 Quit fucking around and get back to work, Jerry. Somebody here is gonna think you're serious. I admit I am a hot head when things don't go right the first time. NOT a blown head gasket. Hell I don't even have the intercooler yet. I either have crap in the carbs or to much fuel pressure (hence the white smoke). I shouldn't have posted what I did while I was still mad. I'm sorry guys. Ok back to the task at hand. I also noticed that while running the carb slides were like mexican jumping beans moving ever so slightly with a nervous twitch. I also noticed number 2 carb slide would not go up when raising the rpm's. I took the rack off and said carb diaphragm was folded over a little bit in the groove and also caused a vacuum leak I'm sure. The bowls and floats and needle and seats are clean with no visual problems. I'll keep pressing on and update with nice things to say next time.....I hope!

HANKSXXX Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Just so you all realize, I've been working on solving the perceived problems with Jerry since the get go. My style is to complete the task and then recap what happened. I will promise you all and Jerry that he will be well satisfied in spite of the bumps in the road. I'd rather give a rundown when done than address a bunch of crap now because sometimes things aren't as they seem.... Bear with us and stay tuned...it will be worthwhile, especially to Jerry.

HANKSXXX Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Head gasket is fine guys.. Had some leaky needles in the carbs, possible fuel pressure problem(TBD), and a possible bad seal in the new turbo(TBD)... Jerry is working on it in what little spare time he has and I have offered to have him bring the bike here or me go there.. That may or may not be necessary or happen... That's all the updates I have for ya for now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrxxquad Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Well, teething problems are to be expected, what ever is marginal before, will rear it's ugly head in the worst way with any power adder. But, it is what it's always about, working them out and becoming better mechanic. The memory will fade but the experiences will make you more than you were.
