Re: Timeing a FZR400
if you mean cam timing you need degree wheel and dial gauge. You cannt do it your self if its your first time, try utube to see if there are any guides.Richard Headon wrote:How do I cheak the tmeing on a FZR400

Re: Timeing a FZR400
Through the carbs is usally an over rich engine - check the choke cable / mechanism isn't sticking open.
I doubt it's the timing - the pickup should be fixed and is on the right side of the crank (as you sit on the bike), but I'd check the ht leads aren't crossed first and then the coil electrics aren't crossed. Check the wiring diagram in the manuals section (I think it's on the front page of the forum). The HT's usually have numbers on but one coil feeds 1+4 the other feeds 2+3
