Carb question
Working on a Yamaha XS1100. It has BS34 carbs with stage 3 kit, pods, and free flowing exhaust. It was running slightly rough just off idle to maybe 1/4 throttle. Not terrible, just not perfect. It screams when opened up. I just put the free-er flowing mufflers on it and now I can hear the stumble / popping from #3 or #4. Carbs are absolutely clean, #3 has an issue. The carb body broke when I took the mixture jet out. I bored the body out and installed a sleeve. The location is slightly off and I can't seat the needle to back it off the 2 1/2 turns dynojet calls for. Do you think this circuit is causing my problem? I'm going to search for a body to replace it but wondered what you all thought.Tags: None

Yeah, I think thats enough to cause a tuning "hiccup". I would be looking around for a replacement carb.

I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to myself than be crowded on a velvet cushion. H.D.T.
