performancex 11-11-2002, 10:03 PM Okee, finally got my darn chaincase gasket that was on backorder, so I was able to start the old dogsled tonight. It's revving at 4500. Won't idle down. What da hey? Where should I start looking? Bigmac 11-11-2002, 10:49 PM Check and see if your Throttle cable is sticking .... Bone Daddy 11-11-2002, 11:09 PM Ya check the throttle and did you rebuild the carbs by chance? Toadie 11-12-2002, 12:38 PM open the garage door, and put a big fan by your exhaust to port the exhaust out... then it's puff puff pass . . . puff puff pass.... :) sledcrazy 11-12-2002, 01:03 PM check your idle screw and air/fuel screw. 02MXZ600 11-12-2002, 01:08 PM Looks like what a party looks like here in St. Cloud. :) Sorry, I really can't help you with your problem. performancex 11-12-2002, 01:45 PM Haven't touched the carbs. All I did was disconnect the throttle cable at the handlebars when I took the bars off. The throttle has full, loose motion. Doesn't seem to be sticking. Maybe I'll check the screws, but if they're in the same position they were before (since I haven't touched them) everything should be the same. I had the garage door open for 3 hours after that picture, and yet the garage still smelled like 2stroke this morning! Yum yum! 1 inch of snow today, gotta get this thing straightened out quick. Steven Hohman 11-12-2002, 04:15 PM Maybe somewhere in the throttle cable it got pinched or punctured? Could be a lot of things, make sure the cable is on and connected tight, then check movement of it on the carbs, and if that isn't it who knows? Steven Hohman 11-12-2002, 04:17 PM Ahh yes, try to take off the choke till it warms up a bit then put it on a little, see if it will stop spinning as high.... horsepower 11-12-2002, 08:00 PM does it rev at 4500 when the motors warm. if not choke it good thats what i do and it works until warmed up Team_Arctic 11-12-2002, 09:05 PM todie had it right its puff puff pass... hehe put some wd-40 on the cable and work it in performancex 11-13-2002, 01:55 PM Originally posted by horsepower@Nov 12 2002, 07:00 PM does it rev at 4500 when the motors warm. if not choke it good thats what i do and it works until warmed up I didn't let the engine get very warm. I think I ran it 6 or 7 times for a total running time of maybe 2 minutes or so. Ran it without the choke. Only need the choke to start it at first. After that, it starts and stays running. Hopefully be able to take a look at it tonight. It has to be something simple. I also have to get the taillight working and adjust the headlight (you can see it shoots up in the air.) performancex 11-13-2002, 09:15 PM Well, I just adjusted the screw on the carb end of the throttle cable. IT's all good now. Runs wicked. We got about 4 inches today, so I ran it a few minutes. fun fun fun...I can't sit still now. Gave it a little throttle and she took off like a rocket. Rides 1000000 times better with my new skid in it and new track on. Just have those head and tail light adjustments/fixes and then slap the body back on and I'm rollin'! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! performancex 11-13-2002, 09:17 PM Another shot of the proof...first ride is always so sweet.. | ||
