Hi,new to this forum but have been reading through. I have a zx400 g 88, the problem is when its warm doesnt like to start. It will just takes a bit of time. The other thing is that when coming to a stand still the revs take a while to drop below 3k. She responds well normaly. Does anyone know the standard float height and or all the standard carb setup,including jet and needle size standard etc. As i cant find out this anywhere

, the zxr is 11mm and i have been told that the zx4 is 16mm, this seems a bit heigh to me. Any ideas would really help other wise shes going to the little bike hell

!!!!!!!!!
Many thanks [/img]

the zx400 was the same as our gpz400 wasn't it? my old man used to have a manual for 1 so i'll speak to him later see if he still has it.

That would be spot on, even if i can get the carbs setup right, i have heard the igniter mentioned could be a cause for some lumpy running??? I dont know about this but any ideas??
thanks

i wouldnt worry about the cdi box.. it'll be the carbs.. its probably worth sealing the carbs to the inlet rubbers with silicone sealant to avoid air leaks.
