CB350/400 / Re: Need to check out a slight misfire when cold
« on: Today at 02:06:42 PM »Did an ignition check - changed wires but no change to cold pipe. I pulled the spark plug, laid it on cyl head and re connected wire - good strong blue/white spark at cranking speed.If you let the bike stand for over 3 weeks there might be some ethanol clogging the jets.
So it might be the carb slightly out of sync though they were carefully bench synced when cleaned several months ago. But still not sure why there would be poor fueling for 30-40 seconds when cold and then clear up on its own and have no such symptoms on restarts for the rest of the day and idle smoothly at 1100 RPM.
I might pursue it a bit more but since it has no effect on the actual operation of the motorcycle within a minute of cold start up, I won't lose much sleep over it. However, I do admit I like things to work as they should so I suspect I will continue to futz with it!
