gassaman Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Hi Guys, been out this morning for a couple of hours, after an hour or so I topped up tank and off I went again, after about 10 mins I noticed the bike was smokey ( blue, It wasn't prior to topping up ,so whipped out the plug ( bit oily ) and replaced with a new one I had handy, I gave it a blast along a dirt track a few times but still smoking a bit, I notice the bike was a bit sluggish on pick up too. I realise it could be a mixture issue re the oily plug but any help would be great. Im running V Power fuel with 75ml per 5 Ltrs. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadof2 Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Sounds as if its running too rich. Check air filter is clean and LIGHTLY oiled Check float level Check cold start enrichment is seating / sealing properly Check float valve is shutting off fully The above are all basic carb servicing, if this does not sort it check and maybe change your jet sizes and / or needle clip position.

copemech Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 Try about 65ml next time. Good synthetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
