Ok so ive got a 77 xs400 that im cafe-ing out... I gots some pod filters on it and some emgo shorties on it as well... standard pistons... So heres my question... Can anyone lend me some insight into a correct carburetor set up for this set up?
Jets to change? sizes?
air jet?
float bowl height?
anything else that would matter?
I went 3 sizes up on the main jets... left cylinder is running niiice but right cylinder i cannot get running well for the life of me... ignition timing is spot on, good spark, good compression... idles on the left cylinder only, right side fires well when the throttle is opened up, but not when cruising...
the right side plug is covered with carbon... as far as i know this could be caused by faulty ignition timing, weak spark, or rich fuel mixture... i think its the fuel air mix which is why i need help with the carb settings... Am I missing anything? what should i ckeck?
any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance!
