I was afraid to heat it up too much but I just tried again. Heated it longer and my impact wrench took it right off. No damage. Old seal out, new...
Yep. That's the bolt. Correct. In gear, rear wheel can't move because of the 2x4 but crank still turns. Takes a lot of force but eventually the...
Hey guys. I've seen this covered in a few posts for changing the crank seal and advancing the timing but I'm still having issues. I need to...
Once again hats off to Len. If you need a part he's got it or probably knows where to get it. We've done business several times over the years and...
Is that Len?
Awesome. Great info. Thank you. I'll take a look and see how the plain plates look. Any idea where to get a gasket? They seem few and far between.
Hey guys I know this thread is old but I'm having the same issue at high rpms. So I'm looking around for clutch parts. Seems most vendors are only...
Aww man. Mine is a 93. Got a ways to go yet.
How old does a bike have to be to not need an inspection?
I have it off already. I'll be testing some things later today. Yes, there's a rubber insulator around the post that fits through the hole on the...
Good stuff. I guess I know what I'll be doing this weekend. :) Thanks Rooster.
Right. I thought about that after I posted that. Ok. So here's another thought. If I were to remove the starter and hook up a negative cable...
Or could that just be the brushes rubbing? Are they supposed to rub?
So here's something I noticed today I didn't pick up on yesterday. When I spin the starter shaft there seems to be some resistance like the...
I'm positive that's the correct amount of washers and order all those washers go. But yes, you're right. If the insulator is damaged inside the...
Good point. They may have to be red.
Did what you said. Hovered around 11v each time. Here's some pics of the solenoid. It's the stock cable so I don't think it's too small of a...
I saw that post. Good information. Different starter though but basically the same principal. I took the starter apart yesterday to check...
That looks really nice but I'm not going. I wish I would have known sooner. Didn't even know about that.
I checked all the connections. Positive from the battery to the solenoid. Neg to the engine block. Black solenoid cable to starter. All are clean...
That's exactly what I was thinking but wasn't sure if it could be done. Where did you get the sockets? Kinda silly to me that they'd have running...
So I've been having a weird problem lately with my 1993 xj600. Here's the details in a nutshell. When I start the bike the positive post on the...
This is probably a simple answer but I'm just not sure so I figured I'd ask. I have a 1993 xj600 seca II. When the bike is on, key just on or...
I got it now. Thank you guys for your help.
Mine are totally different. They have a little nipple sticking out that I can just slip the tubing right on to. [IMG]
I've actually seen a few people do it with the carbs on the bike. Not on the side stand of course. Chock the front wheel, place some jack stands...
yeah. I saw that. I'm not gonna spend the money or the time on building a pvc rack though. I'm just going to do it on the bike. Making sure its...
Quick question guys. While I'm wet setting (clear tube method) the carbs do I leave it on prime? Also, I'm assuming I need to put a nipple over...
Hey guys. Would anyone know why 2 of my xj600 enrichment plungers are leaking? The boots are fine and the plungers are sung against the carb body....
Really? Super glue on metal? Never would have thought of that.
No Didn't strip the slots. I stopped immediately once I couldn't get a good grip on the screws so they're not actually entirely stripped. I still...
Yeah. I wish I would have noticed that before I tried to unscrew them. It's only one carb. Once I stripped them I walked away. Didn't touch the...
Hey guys. So I stripped the darn butterfly screws on one of the carbs and can't get the buggers out now so I can change the shaft seals. Anyone...
My physics professor in college made us build a roller coaster to certian specifications with Disney's roller coaster tycoon. (Obvisiouly a...
Holy crap Bot. You should have been a physics teacher or Bill Nye the science guy or somethin. Thank you for that detailed explanation though. I...
So basically doesn't matter which way the needle goes on. It's the position on the tang that matters. If that's the case, wouldn't the needle sit...
Thanks k-moe. I can get the bowls off no problem. I just have to remove the seat and gas tank. Seeing that you mentioned the orientation of the...
Yeah I was just reading up on it in the forum. I could swear I adjusted the floats properly. Dry then wet. I'm going to get a rebuild kit for the...
Nope. Not on PRI and not on RES. It's in the ON position. I'm going to pull the fuel line off and see if it's leaking. When you say a carb...
Hey guys. I went to start my bike Friday and she started but wouldn't keep running. While she was running, shifting was almost impossible. I was...
Check out the thread. Everything is all done and back together. Thanks for the input though.
Valves adjusted, carbs cleaned, floats adjusted and synced. Bike is back together. Took it for a quick test ride today. Rides nice. I just want...
Well, they're all back together and she's running fine. Thank you all for the responses.
That's what's confusing me. There is no flat of the holder. If it wasn't as snug as it is, it would fall right through. Maybe it squishes between...
Oh it goes in. Just sits on the threads though once you screw in the jet. Just a weird setup I guess.
Yes. 1993 seca II. The thing that is throwing me off is does the o ring just get squished in the jet holder body where the jet threads in and as...
Does anyone know the proper placement for the main jet o ring in the mikuni bds26 carbs? When I took mine apart the o ring fell out of the middle...
Ok guys. Here's the skinny. I got all the shims I needed and popped em all in so the valve adjustment is complete. All are in spec and she's all...
If you don't want it I'll take it. I'm gonna be broke after I get through with this bike.
