You should really avoid poking jets with wire or blowing down them, it just causes problems as you damage the precision machining of the jet. Someone else in the comments, suggested ultrasonic cleaner, this is better. You will struggle to get this to run right now you have done that, just buy new jets and new emulsion tubes and get new needles while you are at it, you'll be amazed how ti transforms the running of the engine.

That sure looks like a 1976 GS ....with a few latter year parts added. The tac speedometer is for sure 1976 and the engine is also 1976 or 1977.

Hi friend. Thanks for video. When your dog heard unrestricted exhaust he/she was like: you know this is a bad idea, right? LOL. Question...if I understand correctly, after conversion, timing advance (for acceleration) remained mechanical. As opposed to electronic. Is this correct?
@HighVizEconomist
@HighVizEconomist Год назад
Yeah I think the weights and springs I left in there is what does the advance.

@@HighVizEconomist that is what I thought. Thank you. Somehow I had hoped that the electronic ignition swap over kit acceleration based ignition timing as well. Apparently not. Oh well. I guess we can't have it all.

Well, I installed my own Dynatec kit few days ago, and it works!!! I siphoned off the switched 12V from the rear brake lamp wire, as the wires go in that direction anyway, didn't want to pry open the wire harness to find a suitable 12V wire. Ordered a strobe light for dynamic timing, after the heat wave is gone, I'll tackle that, for now I set the plate at max. advance timing, anyway, the strobe will show what's best. The old points were really gone...no sparking, intermittent sparking, glad that it's gone...

@HighVizEconomist 2 года назад
full advance is the danger zone brah. will the motor wind up like that? if it wont thats pre detonation and you will burn a hole in your pistons
@RayCis1
@RayCis1 2 года назад
@@HighVizEconomist I know that, got my strobe light yesterday, and timed the ignition, turned the ground plate to its neutral position, and, after the timing, it was positioned about 1.5mm to the left, so, only a very small deviation from its neutral position. Engine ran fine, will make some testrides in town, to see how it goes, as I also renewed clutch springs & -plates, and put in new front wheel bearings, the old ones produced a whining noise when going over 30mph.
@RayCis1
@RayCis1 2 года назад
In the kit is a loose extra red wire that has to be attached to a switched 12v connection, where did you connect that wire? The movie is so instructive, but misses out on connecting the wires of the ignition...

I also came here after a superchat on George's channel. I think you're going to do great if you continue to practice articulating your predictions. Have you tried journaling? Something that I suggest to be as minimal as you creatively can when it comes to displaying the triggers (no pun intended) you are anticipating. I notice the gun safety, but it's still something that could be misconstrued negatively and you unfortunately won't get a chance to clarify to everyone who it reinforces a negative connotation in. Just my first thought- looking forward to watching a bit more of what you put out to see if I can point out what I'm trying, myself to articulate! Good luck!

Diesel fuel is good to clean carbs
@californiadreaming9216
@californiadreaming9216 Год назад
anything 7441 ummmm....no. Diesel is useful for removing sludge, but it will not disolve the varnish in carbs. Soaking in injector cleaner for min 3 days is a great place to start. After that, they should go into an ultrasonic cleaner at a motorcycle shop. Then rebuild as necessary. Important: don't make the same mistake as me... THOROUGHLY clean fuel tank before re-installing carbs or they will just foul up all over again.

About the only thing I'd do a bit differently and it might save you time and trouble of repeatedly dismounting and remounting the carbs would be to buy an ultrasonic cleaner. Those were some nasty looking carbs you had. I took the carb off my 1965 Ford and soaked it in solvent for several WEEKS. Then, I scrubbed, poked and blew it all out. After I put it in the ultrasonic cleaner for 20 minutes, I couldn't believe all the crud that was still in it. The water was black. Now, I bought a Harbor Freight soda blaster and plan on polishing it up and then another stint in the ultrasonic cleaner to dissolve all that baking soda out of it. They do make odd shaped ultrasonic cleaners that would, I THINK, take all four carbs still hooked up together. You could've disassembled and cleaned out those brakes, too. And how about spending $ 20 for a carb rebuilding kit that comes with all new gaskets. But, you got the bike running good your way so I can't criticize. The only other thing is due to my age. When I was young and dumb I used to go screaming along the roads and through the woods, too. After all, DEER DON'T LIVE IN THE WOODS AND WAIT FOR VEHICLES TO COME BY SO THEY CAN JUMP OUT AND STOP IN FRONT OF YOU. Maybe that's my age talking (74) or my bike accident has made me skittish.
