Idle hangs

[nastyjones]

The bike ran and idled great before cleaning. I changed the jetting for the 4-1 and pods I run.

Throw some 47.5 pilot jets in there.
Did you take the idle mixture screws out and change the o-ring.

[nastyjones]

I'll change the pilots tomorrow and yes the idle mix oring was replaced.

[nastyjones]

new pilots installed, no change.
idle still hangs then slows, then stalls
16 valve motor
compression good
carbs spotless inside
all new o rings
pilot-47.5
needle-middle
air-150
mixture screws-2 1/2 turns out
pods and a pipe

advise on what to do next?

If the pilot air screw it 150 you should be running a 160 or 170. With the 47.5 pilot jet I'd go with the 170.

[nastyjones]

I'll order them tomorrow. You think that would be enough to cause my idle issue? I sure do hope so.
Also, i wondered if the needle should be raised a notch?

[nastyjones]

ok Bill, i discovered some 160's in my spare carb parts. I will install them and report back in an hour or so.
Now, how about the needle position while I have them off?

Paul

[nastyjones]

Well, it started raining pretty good here in SW Ontario so I will pick this up tomorrow and report back.

Thanks, Paul
