Thank you. I like the idea of pulling the wires through with the sealer on it but the wires are surely soaked with oil and I think there is a braided insulation on the wires which is going to hold even more oil. I suppose the sealer must be applied to a very clean oil-free surface to allow it to...

I have a slight oil drip. It's located at the left side crankcase cover. I think it's coming through the stator wires. I'll have to take the cover off to investigate. Where is the best place to purchase the big gasket at a reasonable price. And how do I go about stopping a leak at the stator...

Sean Morley responded. The performance carb kits are available. Thank you. In the meantime, I had to double check the wet float level because some of the levels we're out of spec to high. This time they all checked exactly the same but on the low limit. I guess things have settled in since my...

So where do I find a Sean Morley muscle carb kit?

Double check the vent for the gas tank.

Okay so I checked the wet float Heights after the bike was leveled and found 1 carburetor with the fuel level measured exactly right but the other three carburetors had the fuel level to high, and slightly out of spec. I decided to leave it that way and proceed with fuel screw adjustments and...

Okay so the carbs came off the bike opened them up and found a hardened yellowish deposit left from the evaporated gasoline in the float bowls. Carb cleaner had absolutely no effect on the deposits. I could scrape against it and it would come off as powder. Surely this stuff was clogging my idle...

So is there supposed to be any gas sucked into the engine through the needle jet/ jet needle at idle? I think my idle circuit on three of the four carburetors are clogged and I've had to compensate by opening the butterflies too far with the idle screw. The mixture screw on one of the carbs does...

Ya so, are there any new LED headlights to bolt onto my 85 VMax. My low beam original gave up. Would like to upgrade.

Is fuel supposed leak out (small amount) through the needle jet, around the jet needle of carburetors on a 85 v max at idle? Looking down through the bores of all four carbs. Bike hadn't been started in three years but after changing all fluids and stopping the gas leaks i did get the bike...

I have work to do on my 85 VMax ... carburetors. Would someone please recomend an online parts supplier. Hopefully there is a discount.
