    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    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.

Setting them up.

Get a good bench sync, and adjust your mixture screws out about 2 turns from lightly seated. That should get you going in the right dirrection.
 
Your right!!

Your right!!

Hi,

In searching your past posts, it seems you have a 1980 GS1000 with BS34SS carbs, correct?

On my website you'll find tips on float height adjustment, bench sync, highest idle method, etc. Then you'll find a vacuum sync guide on www.bwringer.com/gs . These links should get you started...




Thank you for your indulgence,​

Sorry forgot to tell you what I had. But your right!!
 
Cliff is used to being correct! :dancing:

A bench sync using a bread twist-tie with the paper/plastic removed will get things set close enough to idle. This is explained in the carb clean series on this site or again at Basscliffs' site.

Next is the main set and again this is all explained in detail in the carb series. Some will use a color tune. Morgan makes a great tool for just this application. :)
