new kaw in the stable...oil from the exhaust?
hughes:
Check the float height before making any jetting changes.
MadKaw:
never been into one of these carbs before. how do you make sure the float is at the right hieght? and I'm sure the carb is gunked up from sitting. like I said, the guy didn't ride it much. thought about just upping the idle screw. :roll:
forgot to mention the plug I pulled out of it was completely black and fuzzy...rich, right? or too cold?
but could still be oil from tranny leaking froma seal?
stay calm....stay calm...she's gonna be o.k. :?
FPMXer:
Repack the silencer, clean the carb and air filter, install and new plug and ride it a few times then see if it still runs and idles like crap. Then check the plug and if black jet down. It sounds like it needs a good flogging to get the cob webs blown out and it will be okay. :-D
MadKaw:
yeah, thats where I'll start as soon as I quit workin every day. long shifts on the ambulance... :-o
Spider:
There is no need to split the cases, it sounds like a jetting/fuel mixture problem.
