yz85 oil question
chris-mets:
did it work? I have extra insulation to my house that I can use...does it work?
Chris
chris-mets:
Hey guys,
I tried the house insulation and it works great! This is what I did to my bike and how it is now:
same jets and settings...turned up idle a little
same 32:1 mix that I never took out or did anything
new house insulation packing
cleaned the exhaust as best as I could
put another air filter that I had to the bike with less oil on it
new spark plug
It now has barely any spooge at all and stays running. Im talking theres only 1 tiny drip at the end which im loving now! Hopefully it doesnt come back when the packing is soiled again. The only problem now when I gunned the bike up the street and I was going through the high gears, when you give it more throttle it kind of jumps back a little(misses and acts like it hits a wall then continues) and im not talking about backfiring. its like your trying to give more throttle and its giving jolts of holding back...I was looking on google and am I right that this is a rich main jet?
I should check the plug color tomorrow
Thanks
Chris
chris-mets:
Still didnt get to checking the plug color but could it be a rich main or should I drop the needle clip to the 2nd position again from the 1st?
chris-mets:
Still having the engine cutting out? any ideas?
Chris

I tried to look for a cheap compression tester on ebay but couldnt find one on the cheap side. I have no problem purchasing new rings for the bike then putting em on but I dont want to if its not needed. Anyone on here have a compression tester I could borrow and ill pay shipping or any other ideas?
Thanks sandblaster

I found a cheap comp tester.
It was on e-bay and cost about $20.00 if memory serves me.
I will look for the site if that is in your price range.
