carbs

Just finished cleaning the carbs. I did NOT drill off the caps and re-do the fuel air screw. The bike now idles fine. When I take it to red line and shift it wants to almost studder. The pull seems linear if not a tiny bit exponecial. In other words it pulls pretty evenly throughout the...

Hope i didn't F anything up too terribly bad. I took apart my carbs on an 01 to clean them. I thought I had everything back together correctly. But when I turn the key to start it I hear the fuel pump running and then it blows fuel out of the (I think they are air tubes) two tubes on each...

Hey guys, I just had a quick question for you. Do you think it would be worth rejetting/adjusting the carbs on my 06? Its all stock except for a K&N filter, shimmed airbox Y, and supertrapp slip on exhaust (although they have open caps on them so its pretty much straight through). Last time i...

Hey eveyone this is actually my first post. I have recently cleaned the carbs(with the help of Sean) and decided to install the carbs this evening. Well I got hooked up with a quite unique problem.... For starters, the choke did not seem to work at all. When I would try to start the bike, I...

Hi guys, I have been getting some prices to rebuild my carbs. I would love to send them over to the USA to be rebuilt but with freight it will take to long. Anyway I was thinking of doing them myself and I have got a few different prices on parts. It seams that different companies provide more...

Hi everyone, new member here. I've spent the last few hours perusing the carb section looking for the answer to my questions, but to no avail. I'm pretty good with carbs after many years of jetting and tuning race bikes from the mid 90's on. This bike has me stumped! I've bought a 94 Vmax that...

Just got my carbs rebuilt by Danny and wanted to share my experience with everyone... Its been a few years since my carbs have had any work done and i figured its about time to have them rebuilt, Contacted Danny and he was more than happy to do this work for me. As soon as he got them he...

Don't know if any forum guys are bidding on them. '86 carbs. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Yamaha-Vmax-V-Max-Carburetors-1986-Good-Condition-/270863568047?_trksid=p5197.m185&_trkparms=algo%3DSIC.NPJS%26itu%3DI%252BUA%26otn%3D12%26pmod%3D220906105761%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D4692611241886002392

I've got the carbs off my 85 and have them sent off for a good cleaning, but I've got a lead on a set of 86 Venture carbs cheap. I'm afraid my 85 carbs might need a diaphram or two, are the Venture diaphrams exactly the same? Other than the jet sizes, are the carbs directly interchangeable...

I am looking to send my 1985 v-max carbs to get rebuilt I got the bike with 145,000 miles on it it had a hindle and filters with a hindle pipe the Hindle got distroyed, and the bike has never started easily since I got it. once running for the day it seemed better, but still hard starting I...

Hi guys, I wonder if anyone might know what might be up with my bike. Its feeling a bit sluggish when I accelerate gradually, but if I really give it quick full acceleration it feels really gutsy. It use to feel really smooth and grunty at low speeds but now seems to be more noise than power. I...

Sorry Top fuel carbs, What I'm talking about are the ones that have the gears in the middle so you don't have to sync, if you have used them let me know how you like them I'm thinking about buying some

Hi fella's, I am in the market for a synchronizing tool, I have been looking online and there seem to be a few different types ranging from $4 home made to $200+ can I please get some feed back from those who synchronize their own carbs. Cheers lads

OK, so here's what has been done to date; 93 Cal Vmax w/ 25,000 miles Checked valve clearences and are fine. Carbs were covered with oil from leaking valve covers so pulled them apart and cleaned, checked fuel level and reinstalled after replacing valve cover gaskets. Went to sync and...

hello, new here and hope i'm posting in correct sub-forum. i recently purchased a 97 Max, and I want to have carbs rebuilt and a Dyno Stage 1 kit (or similar) installed. i can tell there are issues with the carbs (smell gas, some minor back-firing etc) and figure since the bike is 14+ years...

Anyone have much experience with those cheapo B&G carbs on std push motors? I have two older mowers down cause the carbs are shot. My latest Sears mower is about to go hoots up. The thing dies at any point while mowing. I have to prime the thing, then it waivers, running up and down in rpms...

I need your advice .Its whiskey from Gibraltar.I got a stage 7 dynojet >kit I had a 165 main jet on with lazer pro stock.I now got hand built 4 >into 2 with no restriction but with the 165 did not work well it did not >have power.I put on 175 but still not working properly .Do you have any...

Hey guys... When lankee listed that bike on craigs he said that it had stage 4 jetting. But i've looked around and from what i've seen there is only a 1,2,3, and 7... Is that right? How can i tell what is currently done to my carbs?

I really don't see any difference except the brass spigot (similar to a sync spigot) that comes out of the throat of #2 carb and goes, I believe, to some sort of canister. I think there is a difference in main jet sizes on CA Ventures, but I'm not sure if this is true with the V Max. Are...
