Re: zx6r running like ****

Did he tell you how this happened? He had this clam parked on the bar and it fell over on the left side. Probably knocked some **** loose in the bowls. I'm guessing that there is **** stuck in the low speed/pilot jet. It was running fine before that point.

Jeff we'll dig into it tomorrow. I have everything you need here at the shop to drill it out if needed.

Re: zx6r running like ****

Still running like ****, did the pilot jets, found some crap in the main jet of the #1 carb, ran fine for a few till it warmed up and it had a habit of flooding.....

Wonder if he screwed up the float level when it fell ff the 12 bar.

Re: zx6r running like ****

Check the float level and if you want to come down early next week, I'll rig up a mercury switch and relay for your fuel pump.

Re: zx6r running like ****

take the bowl off remove the float make sure the neddle is properly set(hooked around the float arm, it's a tiny wire loop) reassamble. i knock mine off/out of place shakin it, and it would squirt gas out the top.

Re: zx6r running like ****

Ok, did you set the float level like I did with the #1 cylinder at the shop? I think when you dropped the thing, you might have bent the metal tab that controls the float level. If the tab is bent, no matter how well the needle sets. It's of no use if it's not being allowed to fully close due to improper adjustment.
