Just spent another 40 bucks to rebuild these damn carbs. Put them back on and I still have the same problem of carbon building up on the plugs. Could the PO of the the carbs made the hole in the jets bigger? Can I have this problem because the rings haven't seated yet? I know the valves need adusting could any of these be the cause??

Breaking-in your rings properly is one of the most important to do. Many people don't know how.
Read this artical: Break-in Secrets I bought a new Harley back in 99. Did everything the owners manuel said. "Don't go over 2,000 rpm for the first 50 miles" it said. After 1,000 miles I had the H-D shop put the Big Bore Kit on. When I got my old P/C I noticed there was a good bit of blowback showing on the piston and alot of black carbon on the piston top. I asked the mechanic why this happened. He said (off the record) if you baby it the first 50 miles the rings won't seat completely. The above artical is very good reading. Not only for rebuilds but for new cars too. Ralph 74 2.0 |
