Hesitant revs below 3,000 RPM when hot.

<< < (5/11) > >>

Bradders:
Morning. Not had chance to do any of the suggestions as been away on holiday in Canada last couple of weeks, wall to wall Harley’s out there. K2-K6, could I run it without the filter for 20 miles to test or is that too long? The problem only seems to happen when the engine is hot.

Bryanj:
As long as there is no dust storm that should be ok

K2-K6:
Yes as Bryan says, ok to go without filter for that time.

It may be a good idea to use a vacuum cleaner inside the airbox when you take the filter out to remove any extraneous debris before you start it.

They should be 2 turns (+/- 1/4 ) so close to standard but I'd screw then out a bit, try 1/4 at a time , so could be a easy fix.

Should be 2±½ on a CB400/4, which gives a little more leeway to fettle.I have mine set at....No 1, 2 ½ out, No's 2 & 3, 2 3/8 out and No.4 2 turns out. But every set of carbs will be slightly different.
