    Carb Syncing Problem

    So.. I had an issue with the carb sync. It mainly had to do with the vacuum on Cylinder #4. I'm having an issue that the sync just won't line up. I pulled the carbs to clean but found they were basically spotless on the inside, I still ended up rebuilding the #4 carb just because I was in...

    Shotgun complete, A/F (sorta) adjusted, carb syncing question

    Where I left off, the "shotgun" fixed my bad idle/ low power question. Today I decided to try to sync the carbs and to futz with the air-fuel screws. 1) Even if I tightened the screw for carbs 3&4 all the way, they still wouldn't go to the same vacuum. Thoughts? 2) Tightening the air-fuel...

    Quik question. I feel the carbs need to be synced on the 95 I just bought. Would anyone know why I couldn't use the "old fashioned" vacuum gauges instead of the Merc or Protune? Thanks:ummm:

    Syncing Left and Right Carbs

    I started to sync the carbs this morning and I got 1 & 2 synchronized, and 3 & 4 synchronized, but I ran out of play on the L - R sync adjustment. Any Ideas? Would a sticky V-boost cause this? I do hear the servo actuating when I turn the bike on. Brad
