need help #2 + #4 not getting hot

Postby SkiLLzCb650c » Sun Sep 16, 2007 1:36 pm

I have my 81 cb650c running now....kinda. Its idling descent but not for more than 30 secs to a minute.
#2 and 4 pipes are not getting hot......why?

Where is the overflow for the carbs? I am leaking out of #1 + #2 carbs at the bowl gasket. Is gas supposed to get this high with or without the engine running? When I pulled them for the first time the PO had put some RTV around em......I just cleaned it off and reinstalled without it. I dont know if I have a float sticking or what. They were both leaking and I took the bowls back off and cleaned the floater valve and made sure it cut off the fuel when pushed up. I have the CV carbs....non adjustable

Should I set all of the adjusting screws on the carbs back to factory specs? I havent touched em but I can tell the PO has. I have the 4-1 ehaust.

Im getting a lot of views and not many replies here.......i hopeing otherwise. Thanks to you who have helped so far. Cmon fellas keep the info coming! THANKS!!!

Set them to factory specs to start out with. You need to get a manuall and clean them and the tank good.

Already cleaned the tank and the carbs......I have the online shop manual. I need to know where the overflow is for the carbs......Should gas get to the top of the bowl? Its leaking out from the bowl gasket on #1 or #2 or both.

Going to adjust them now.......
