Revs Hanging

Post by chownsy » Fri Aug 19, 2011 6:20 pm

Hello all, Been a while since I posted here last as been doing long shifts at my new job so been working sleeping working agian, finally got chance today to get on the bike.

I fitted new carb rubbers, used the origional carb clamps as i found the new clamps i had (jebilee clips) were not sealing the rubbers correct. I then reset the float heights after about 10 attemps so i knew they were perfect.

I have now got the airbox on, air filter and top on and started her up.

It took a small amount of choke to start her (been sat for about 3 weeks unstared and in bits) and then i took the choke off and she ran lumpy but stayed running unlike previously where she would die after about 1/2 a min of idling and coughing.

The thing is tho, the revs are still hanging from 4000 to 2000 rpm but no where else on the rev range.

I have yet to take her on the road to see if there is any difference to this and also the misfire under load issue that i had with her.

Could anyone suggest anything to look out for before i put the tank on and go out on a ride too test her out again.

balancing brother at a guess. Other wise air leak. Choke. Thottle cable. Or carb rubber not seated right. Get some brake or carb cleaner and spray on the rubber whilst idling if the revs rise thats your air leak.
