Poor Cold Starting

(1/3) > >>

CBNelly:
Hi,
Have owned my 400/4 since 1990 and always been a good starter
That was until I totally stripped down the carb assembly!
Now takes ages to get going normally with throttle opened
When started it runs fine
Seems like the choke is not working even though butterflys close and tops lift when apply choke
What should I be looking for on carb set-up?
Carbs currently sat on my work bench and all checks so far have yielded nothing
Help
Thanks
Neil

Nurse Julie:
Why did you strip the carbs, did you have a problem with them?

CBNelly:
No, carb strip was to clean and re-plate some external fittings

Ran fine before strip so I think something on re-assembly not right

Nurse Julie:
Basics to check...depending on what parts you removed......have you bench synced them and have you adjusted the fast idle adjuster as per the manual?

CBNelly:
Only have a Haynes manual

Is there a copy of a Honda manual on this site?
