Prepping new motor and should be installed soon can't wait to have my bike back again!!! :)

I'm looking for a 81 xs400 motor must be in great running condition let me know if anything out there ! Mine just went :( thank you

U still have the motor?

I have some mix screws lmk

Yeah I know I checked compression a few days before that and was decent good, and I had to wait to go to work to grab my compression tester

The motor basicly granaded he had nothing hooked up to the chain tensenoir so the chain dug into that he was surpose to have those chain guides there was only one on there and broken to peices

Case closed PO who ever built this rebuilt motor is shit ! Motor is toast going to have to tare down and see if even rebuild able

No compression!!!!!!!!

Yeah I guess I'll try that these plugs only have 110 miles on them lol

Yeah I actually think the pilot are .45 , but anywho, I'm going to have to look more into timing I guess, the bike use to start up so easy and nice don't get it

Idle mixture is 2.5 turns , they actually might be 45. I'm so lost lol I don't get how the bike ran fine then just shuts off, and dosnt run again lol, when everything is pretty much checking out good

Jets are all stock beside mains are upgraded for pods and yes what pics would u like I get off work around 6, in going to do compression test again

Lol yeah I kinda over reacted on the comment lol, normal gas is getting to the carbs as it was when running.

Lunch time Bummppppp

I didn't say shooting there is gas getting to the carbs though no one has any ideas what could possibly be the issue

Okay used my new carb housing cleaned everything every whole spent a lot of time on the carbs cleaning them about 2 hours or so still no start , fuel does splutter from carbs when trying to start so there deff getting fuel I'm lost

Okay I have a extra carb housing I'm going to rebuild and clean there cleaner and nicer then the carbs I have on, and my one piolet jet head is strip basicly gone I guess from PO

You have to reset the valves after pulling the valve cover off, and it does sound like carb issue

Okay sprayed starting fluid in sparkplug holes and I do get some pop and fire coming out exhuast, this mean I'm prob not getting gas to the cylinder heads?

Is this normal timing chain play or should I look into the timing jumping a tooth
