Ok put carbs back together, set the float height as best i could with going off the suzuki manual and the carbs are flooding horribly, i checked for stuck needles, they were both fine... I've had enough of this bike....

I sent you a PM, but the only time my carbs were flooding was caused by the petcock.
You said you checked yours though, i think?

Bugger! Is it possible for something to screw with the vacuum line or something? If it's like my 450, it should only feed the carbs with fuel if there's a vacuum (I think I put that right).1982 GS450E - The Wee Beastie

Yeah, i've tested the fuel tap by sucking on the hose and fuel only flows when there is vacuum on it. I'll pull the carbs off tomorrow and put them on the bench with a fuel supply, i'll take the bowls off and se if fuel stops flowing when the floats are at there highest, i'll start with that.
I think i could pull these on and off the bike with my eyes shut.. lolLast edited by Guest; 12-15-2010, 07:30 AM.

I was thinking that maybe my new o-rings arnt sealing, but they needed a little pressure to go in and cant come out without some pliers so they should be ok. I hope they are fixed tomorrow, up to 6 pages of crap now lol

Found another source telling me the Suzuki Manual is wrong for where to measure the float height. So i'll give that a go while i'm in there.

ok well i'm abit lost with what to do now..... I sprayed water onto the inlet rubbers with the bike idling and there was no change, i'll find something with ether in it and see if the revs go up.
Other than that i have no idea what to do?
