on your TW200 Before assuming you have a problem with the carburetor your going to want to check this out first and it's such an easy fix. There is a boot between the carb and the cylinder head that can crack and cause a vacuum leak. I show you a couple ways to test to see if you for sure have a vacuum leak or not. I also show how the engine reacts when there is a vacuum leak. This is for sure something you want to check first when your TW200 is not running correctly. I hope this video was helpful and thanks for watching

Fun fact: that tube is additional intake volume to balance the cylinder volume to time when the wave front passes the carb venturi during low rpm low throttle conditions (such as idle). Most people that remove the hose and plug the port discover the bike runs worse!

@TDubsKid Год назад

oh wow, I was wondering if it had something to do with that also like how cars have strange pipes and chambers on the air boxes sometimes. so helpful to know that actually, thanks so much

@willhutton1516 Год назад

Yup! That’s why “removing the airbox lid” is often a cheat to get more power rather than actually getting the right CFM Carb and jetting.

@BillySBC Год назад

My personal belief is, if you are going to go somewhere remote with a motorcycle, someplace far from help where a tow truck can't get to you, then you want an air-cooled and carbureted motorcycle like the TW200 or one of the other air-cooled dualsports out there, because the number of things that can fail on you in the middle of nowhere are not that many. There is no electric fuel pump to quit on you, there is no radiator for a stick or a rock to go through, there are no injectors to malfunction, no thermostat to stick shut and overhead your bike and possibly warp the motor, no radiator hoses to cut on something. If you take an extra ignition module, an extra spark plug wire, extra regulator/rectifier (all three of which weigh very little and are very small) and maybe a carb rebuild kit with you, then you basically have everything with you that can cause your motorcycle not to run, I mean these bikes will even run if the battery is dead. It's not a matter of size, it's a matter of RELIABILITY and EASE OF REPAIR if something goes wrong. That's why these bikes are the Swiss Army Knives of motorcycling and adventure.

@ifanthillsweregirls2891 Год назад

Hey tdubskid, I live in Parker CO and whip the TW often. A word of warning, this issue regarding the carb boot can cause the engine to run way too lean and will fry the piston. I posted this issue on the TW forum a while back when this issue came up for me. It happened again a month ago and I had to pull the engine apart again. The boot isn’t ripped, but the expansion hose had cracked. Honestly for an air cooled motor, this boot should be a metal part. The intake definitely gets hot and the heat cycles will age the rubber boot prematurely. Thanks! Good content as usual and I hope to see you on the trails this season when my baby is up and running!

@TDubsKid Год назад

for sure, running lean too long can cause problems, that really sucks and yeah they should have used something better maybe someone should make a metal replacement part. best of luck, thank you

@kaptein1247 11 месяцев назад

It for sure shouldnt be metal because it would transfer a lot of heat would transfer to the carb, which would cause it to run poorly. For bikes with metal intakes you often have thick plastic gaskets. Which is a huge failpoint, in my experience. It leaks air very easily and have had them break on me as well.

@ThingsAboutMusic Год назад

@JacobAnawalt Год назад

Thank you for the great explanation and in-depth demonstration! The "run away choke" example reminds me of a condition I had a couple years ago, before replacing my carb and boots. It makes me think part of my problem may have been a vacuum leak. (I was also struggling to get the float valve to seat and the carb kit was more than a newer model knock-off carb so I also replaced it, which required new boots.)

@sasquatchrosefarts Год назад

@@TDubsKidif you get the right boot, I wouldn't put anything on it at all. Just make sure it's clean on the head and the boot and the carb. Any sealant will degrade faster than the boot, and create a cleanup issue years later when you need a new boot again.

@luvnotvideos Год назад

This was super interesting! Now I'm wondering if a vacuum leak was the issue I had with a Tdub I got at a city auction that ran like crap no matter what I did to it... It's sold and gone now, but at least if this happens again, you've given me another thing to look at. Thank you for sharing!

@TDubsKid Год назад

@DannyB-cs9vx Год назад

I replaced the carb to head manifold on my XT225. I noticed the little nubs in the groove for the O ring. I thought they were a manufacturing defect as the O ring did not want to sit in the groove well. I carved them out with my pocket knife. I also replaced the carb. I see the nubs in your new manifold, (10:43), so maybe doing this was a mistake, but the O ring seems to seal well and the bike runs fine.

interesting, ill have to take a look again, ill be sure to keep that in mind when it's time to replace, as long as it seals good you should be ok

@ridgetop8161 Год назад

I had the hose disconnect from the manifold in the middle of nowhere. It would run under throttle, but die as soon as the throttle was relaxed. I had no idea that was the problem at first, and was thinking I'd be stuck out there. I thought the carb had decided to fail. Luckily found the issue after really looking the carb area over. Squeezed the hose back on and good to go.

@jethrox812 5 месяцев назад

You can crash the throttle a bit and it should smooth out enough to test the for leaks with the spray. as the rpms increase and the air flow goes up the lean condition will lesson alowing the engine to run enough for your test. at even half throttle the airflow through the carb will be high enough to make a small vaccume leak insignificant

Makes sense, more throttle means less vacuum. Thanks for the kind tip!

Does it hurt to ride my TW200 when it’s this hot? I am from northwest Oregon and I never had to worry about the heat with these Air Cooled Motorcycles but here it’s a different story. What do you think about this? Thanks for helping everyone with the TW200s. James

hey for sure, wow it usually doesn't get that hot here, the TW200 could overheat easier in those temps, if you keep it moving it should be ok, hard slow up hill trails can really make it overheat when it's 80 out, you can tell when it starts to over heat, you start to loose power, done it manytimes, have to give it a cool down break or get it moving quicker to get air over the fins. I would be riding at night in the summer if I lived there haha

@TDubsKid Okay awesome thank you so much; I've got a Tdub of my own and I'm wanting to make videos on it just as a hobby. Your channel is amazing and helps so much when it comes to working on this bike so seriously thank you so much for all of it

My TW runs great until I get into higher rpm’s or under a load. When going up steep hill to my house,I have to put in 1st gear and throttle to point before it cuts out. And barely make it.I’ve even had to get off TW and walk beside it last time , so I could make it home. Got any ideas?

@TDubsKid 9 месяцев назад

have you checked for vacuum leaks like in the video? is it an old TW200? the old TW200 CDI units had issues and cause problems like your describing. could be a lot of things, need to start diagnosing the issue

@@TDubsKid my TW is 2008,when weather warms up, I’ll check for vacuum leaks and the cdi like you suggested. 2017 I was hit by a car,it bent front fork. I still been driving TW around on the farm with bent forks. I need to stop putting off repairs and get bike ready for this spring. Thanks for responding back,enjoy your channel!
