i havent got any replies in the the non-honda forum but i need you help since alot of you guys are really good at jetting and carb issues.
k i have a Z400 with no air box lid, ct full pipe with the race tip( no spark arrestor ). k&n filter, dyno jet kit with 155 main ( biggest they have and what ct told me to run) and a 25 pilot ( stock is 23 ). needle is on the third clip as dyno jet recommends and 3 1/2 turns out on the mixture. im having some problems.:grr
the bike seems to run fine but when i rev it up it sounds like its hesitating ( really sounds like crap no backfires though ) about 3/4 maybe or maybe a little after 1/2.
when i stab the throttle real fast it will just die, i would have to hold the throttle a little then stab it but it will still die after i let off the throttle, it shouldnt do that should it?. i dont know whats wrong. :rolleyes: also when im riding if im climbing a hill and hold it wide open then have to stop or slow down i pull in the clutch it will die. also some times going down hill with the clutch in it will also die.
i replaced my spark plug and the electrode was barley brown. it seems like im running rich. am i too rich on the midrange?? also when i put the airbox lid on i wont even go anywhere i get about half throttle and falls on its *** and dies.
thanks for the help
