bad valve or cracked head???

[deyo27]

Its an 82 gs 1100 e carbs were rebuilt with dinojet kit and #4 cylander had to be tuned rich just to get it to run. It runs ruff untill about 3000 rpm. Other three are fine. It blows back into the carb on #4. How hard is a head rebuild if it is not cracked? What heads might fit if it is cracked and where do I find one?

Have you adjusted the valves? :-k

Adjusting carbs is the LAST item in the tuning process. Spitting back through a carb might be carb-related, but it can also be tight valves.

Have the carbs been synced? I'd do that first, perhaps it's way off & that's why it's running rough.

What mods did you do to warrant the Dynojet kit? Stage 1 or 3 ??

 

[deyo27]

Yes they have been synced. V&h slip on and k&n pods.

Maybe before some other stuff, but carb sync is supposed to be done after valve adjustment.

The question remains, ... have you adjusted the valves? :-k

Well, I meant look at that first before messing with the head...

However, the valve adjust suggestion is right on.

Nop don't know how.

I hear Toyota makes reliable vehicles.

Edit: you can download a repair manual for free off the internet (search out Basscliff's web site). You will also find a procedure to adjust the valves there. You bought a 28 year old vehicle that needs maintenance.

Hey, thats what I do for a living...Toyotas that is... Deyo, read thru a service manual.. They are on Basscliffs site and other places also... It is not hard to learn. Just measure twice and take your time... It is very theraputic in a Schizoid type of way...

Hi,

It's all in your "mega-welcome" (<<Click). Sure, it's a LOT of information but it will save you a lot of hassle if you do it all right the first time. Keep us informed.


Thank you for your indulgence,
