    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hi all, I have a 1981 Suzuki gs 650gl with pods and stock header and emgo 12" mufflers. I rebuilt carbs, also ended up using dyna jet Steve 3 kit... New intake boots and viton orings... Checked for air leaks...none synced carb with merc sticks... The bike starts perfectly with choke on and then when warm settles down.. I adjust mixture screws.... Turn in until you hear it miss turn out a 1/4 turn.. Bike seems happy right around 2.5 -3 turns out.... While adjust I run a box fan and shut bike down not to overheat bike.. I go for a ride and at 1/4 to 1/2 throttle I get white plugs.....I also get a pop here and there..... I know I'm still in pilot circuit... Other than mixture screws is there another adjustment I can make...
 
Dyna jet Steve kit? What kind/brand pods are you running? What dyna mains did you start with and where are your needles' height? The pros on here seem to reccomend getting the main right first and then fall back to mid range, etc..
 
Yes, I'm on 160 mains, needle height at third notch down from top.. Pods are cheapo emgo's...
 
Lose the Emgo Sand Sifters, they don't filter at all and they don't flow much air, sometimes they block the idle air passage at the intake. Garbage.
