Hi Rick, yes I do run a shim pool. When you know what sizes you need, get in touch with me via a conversation

I am new to the forum and new to xj's
Just doing some research before tackling a valve clearance job. I saw in an old post that you have a shim exchange pool, if you are still doing this please let me know how it works. I have not checked mine yet so I don't know what sizes I will need but I plan on tearing into it this weekend due to a rainy forecast.

Spike....more than likely, one of the exhaust heat-shields is loose. When you hear it,touch with your toe and see if it stops.

Carbs

Dally I have an 82' XJ750 Maxim it will run then die suddenly and when it is restarted it backfires. I t will restart but wants to go through the same process again. ( It is also very cold natured in the morning startup. ) I would like it to just be able to run at an even idle. Around 1150 to 1200 rpm. What should I check first?

Mike....check your inbox

hogfiddles hi I was directed to you on carb cleaning for my 1985 xj700 max hope you can help me out carb is off but looking for a good carb cleaning and carb set back to factory settings replace anything that needs replacing let me know if we can hook up or if you can direct me to place here in Portland Oregon thx

Kevin, check your inbox.... We'll talk there......

Can you give me a ball park price to have the carbs cleaned and rebuilt on my 82 xj 750? I was told I should come to you.

bobt, check your inbox

I here you are the carb. man. If I send the carbs out do you have a ball park on the cost? How do I contact you?

hey hogfiddles can you read my post about my turn signal and maybe give me some advice, the only info I don`t have is about the bulb that's in the new turn signals, I can`t get it out

Couldn't care less about the value of kitchens

Thanks,Sno!

With Pollock's help I made some room in my inbox so your message would come in !

Hey Dave, I hope you're doing well. My Seca900 is still not running but I recently saw an ad about a '84 Seca 750 front fairing and I wonder if it would be a direct swap?

Hi, Len said that you were the guy to talk to you about my carburetors. I have a 1983 seca. I have rebuilt the carburetors but I did not break them from the rack. I am slightly handicapped and it's getting to be a lot of work. I do have a vacuum leak shaft seals. What would you charge to replace them for me?

go into the forum or marketplace heading that you want, then click on the "post new thread" button toward the upper right area

robawf, we ALL lost our pics when we went to the new format. You'll have to reload what you can. We ALL had to.

I DON'T......my wife will confirm that---much to her annoyance.
