:-P
I got some jets for my pwk and started with a 168 main and a 58 pilot and got er to start but I think somethin else is wrong.
She does have any power, I wonder if it has a leak someplace in the bottom or a sherared key in there someplace.
Would it start if the key was sheared?
AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Friar-Tuck:
My Best friend had his key shear and we tore our hair out with it. It would pop and sputter however it would just not stay lit.
Has the weather changed much from when you first got her CB?
I'm sure you've gone through all the regular stuff, air filter, fresh fuel etc. where exactly are you in elevation and what is the weather like, needle and clip position. These also are quite sensitive to float height adjustment.
The Prev. owner may have also swapped out the needle too.
The N82m is what most guys are happy with and is the stock needle for PWK's from Kawasaki on 500's.
There are several other possibilities but taking them on one at a time is the only way I know how to slog through this kind of stuff.
Here is a troubleshooting chart from somewhere...(Back in a moment!)
