fuelling at tickover

Post by steve87 »

hey guys, still got a slight fuelling problem, but only at tick over. im now sure if its too rich or not?
i want to see what fuelling is like at tick over, but it doesn't massivly change the colour of the plugs when left on tick over.
is there a more efficiet way to check this?
the problem is it will sometimes cut out on me if sat at a junction and be a giraffe to start again

Hi,

The problem could be a number of things but it sounds to me like the mixture screws are turnt out too much. Try turning them in by half a turn.

Also, when the bike is warmed up blip the throttle on idle... does the needle on the counter go up then go below idle before rising back to idle again or even stalling?

You could also check the HT caps as they tend to break up and come loose.

Regards

Rich
