Re: carb seals would they cause running problems
and the throttle cables now snapped feck (new one on route)
on the plus side atleast it never went in a week or 2 and iv have to strip in down again
the carb that was half a turn to far out will explain the fact i had 1 cleanish plug and 3 mingers

Re: carb seals would they cause running problems
and iv just clicked on its supposed to have 2 throttle cables-i only have the pull,do i really need the push? as the cables completely missing iv got no idea where to route it
thus far the parts iv found to be missing are
exhaust clamp
4 carb clamps
1 throttle cable
1 snorkel
1 rubber flap
and majority of the bellneck seals
the list is likely to be extended by the time u finish this task

Re: carb seals would they cause running problems
The return cable isn't essential for the bike to run. I don't have one on my NC30. It actually gives a lighter throttle which is nice, but the trade off is a safety one in that you will lose a mechanical means to shut the throttle if the something happens to the carbs (throttle sticks open, something fails etc.)leerc wrote:and iv just clicked on its supposed to have 2 throttle cables-i only have the pull,do i really need the push? as the cables completely missing iv got no idea where to route it

Re: carb seals would they cause running problems
all back together now and its alot better but not perfect it still has a slight splutter
the only thing left at this stage is the snorkel (i bought one just awaiting delivery)

Re: carb seals would they cause running problems
when i took it out today for a propper test its still there-badly
starts at 5k and goes away at 7
so far
new plugs/filter/oil
carbs clamped in (clamps were missing)-pilots screws set back to stabdard 2.25)
jets/emulsion tubes out cleaned
standard belmouths in
its alot colder today than yesterday but i only took it round the block so never got out of 1st
theres only 2 things left and im not convinced they,ll be helpful-airbox snorkel and the flap under the carb tray

Both of those parts are critical to how it runs.

Re: carb seals would they cause running problems
they were delivered today so ill stick em on tomorrow-it seem alot flatter now higher up im assuming its either the standard bellmouths or the .25 turn in on the pilot screws
if the snorkel/flap resolves the issue im pondering over the idea of turning the pilots out slightly
