    Hello Guys! Came back from work two weeks ago, and started to faultfind my carb probs again. I took off the air-filter and was standing there looking down the intakes.

    My Project. 1988 V-Max from Norway.

    Thank you guys! :) I have a rule saying that when temp reaches 10 degrees celsius in the spring, it's time for the first trip of the year... (Happens around beginning of May. Early September season is over...) Gives us a lot of time to shine up the bike for next year.......... :) Think i...

    Yes "jfeagins" feels like it's starving for fuel, i will have a closer look when i'm back home from work. one2dmax: The bike is completely original, so i have an airbox and faux cover. But i'm not sure what you mean by CDI...? TurcoLoco: I don't think we have something called seafoam here in...

    Running rough...

    Hi all, Yes, brand new plugs are in... Did a third cleaning now, and it's much better. Strange thing is that the sputtering cylinder is now good, but the one in front of it has started to act up. Looks like i've managed to move the problem forward... :clapping:I'm leaving for work now for 5...

    New day, new possibilities... :) Tried the "shotgun" again today with carbcleaner. Started up, and it runs smoth and nice on idle. Syncro on the carbs are dead on. But... When i start driving it, it starts to sputter and it clearly runs on only three cylinders all the way up to 6000 rpm's. Then...

    Running rough...

    Thank you guys. The Diaphram and needle alignment looks ok. One more thing i have noticed, is that it's sounds louder in a way... Like the engine is running harder... Difficult to explain, but it's like a harder sound of the engine.... I don't know... :ummm: Anyway, i'll try to do the shotgun...

    Running rough...

    Hello guys! I've finally put my 88 MAX back together, and it's been running good since i calibrated the carbs. Yesterday i was out riding, after a hard accellereration, it started to sputter. I drove it back home, and found that i didn't run on the aft cylinder on the right side. Did the...

    My Project. 1988 V-Max from Norway.

    Hello Guys! Wanted to show you the project i've had going during this winter. I bought this bike last fall, and took it all apart as i wasn't too happy with the way it looked. There was some rust on the frame, and had a bad paint job.... Bought all the OEM parts from partforyamaha.c** (1/3 of...

    Coolant leakage....

    Hello gamorg02! The leakage was from where the right front downpipe enters the rear muffler. It was really pouring out, so i was a bit worried. It was like a big cup before i turned it off yesterday... It started right after i turned the drain plug from from drain to normal... What happened...

    Thank you PDWeyand for your effort and time, i really appreciate it. Hello again! Went out again today, bought new oil, filled him up, topped the missing water from yesterday and started. Waited patiently for the moment the water would start flowing in the engine.... Then the VMAX God...
