MY ZX50 O.E.M CARB TUNING

[art]

So you got the oem fan to work with the aftermarket drive face on the people hmmm,i can't see it happenning with this set up,was saposed to be an athina showed up as a rumia,don't know if that makes a difference.(on sale) I'm wondering if the aluminum dicapates the heat better. the outer belt is noticably hotter than the inner and thats were the friction is    All seems to be working fine. I thought the outer heat was from friction from hitting the bendix ,so i removed it and no difference    and no noticable rub with the longer gates belt. It does have a higher top potential,I'll be trying the new clutch face tomarrow i hope.  In the mean time bought another aero 80 for a $100 no title (great shape and going to pick up a geely with title for a $100,you might see were this is going     In my spare time. catch ya later

ok boys...i am back....well, my cvt HAS to be close now, has to be...i was gonna play with carb again today but i am sortof against it...its pretty humid here today..will that change my sh**     i know she runs different when hot and humid........

[art]

  So whats the final set up?  My hot rod is down right now (stator) I think, No spark!!! I have a feeling it's been on it's way out for some time leading to many of my tuneing problems since the trip to california. Damn! May explain the crapping out at high revs I've been haveing.
  Any more juice you can squeeze outta that stock carb will help   
 
  The fan will not work with the rumia drive face in stock form. Had to grind and mold to get it in the seat and torque it down.  Now it interfeers with the kick start gear return  I Will have to trim all the fins to make it of any use. So no fan for now (It don't run yet)

whats up art? thanks for the reply..i was wondering if being so hot and humid today that would actually throw me backwards...idk...have to hope store has more plugs, i am down to one chop plug...lmao....                    currently, i have the malossi 1000/ w oem flys, heavy ass race var w/7s..idk if thats it. posted in other with ?.....lol

[thebatman]

well i took carb off today, ran torch cleaner thru 3 times.  took off for a plug chop...actually had a tannISH ring around this time....wooo hooo. curved portion of electrode was a darker tannISH..stopped right there..had a tan ring..lmao...BUUUUUUT...  i may need to try that shim trick

[art]

 Yep! Did ya notice any pick up in performance. I'd say your almost dialed now.

[wordslinger]

...sounds like your carb is damned close then..

 

...give it a day or two...

..see how it averages out on performance...

 

..every day is a challenge...

[thebatman]

yeah boy, every day is a challenge...been messing with her most of the day....lmao..   i didnt really notice much inprovement but did sound a bit better(less whiny??).....still not much low and mid i dont think, i could be wrong tho...idk...

[thebatman]

update:....... rode her today for about 50-60 miles, between the removal of carbon and/or the rejet but dam, what a difference today..mid was better, top was even better(posted in other thread also)..bottom was slack again, idle is even lower today, may have to raise a hair......sooooooooo, i wonder if these shims would help any somewhere or just stop till i get a real carb..lol....(thinking of trying to port my reed cage to help the flow in)(supposed good for 1mph,according to a hardcore tuner)..(have a pic of what to shave marked)...alot mmore plzd today with her, NOW i think shes STARTING to wake up!!   

[sidthesloth]

Thats cool, when you get a good result it makes it all worth while. Removing the carbon has allowed it to breathe again, before, you were getting the air/fuel in but she was struggling to get the ex. gas out effectively choking the engine.

[thebatman]

I AM A BELIEVER.................YET AGAIN..LMAO

[art]

           It's the small things sometimes, get rid of that oil.

[thebatman]

yeah, i believe that also...lmao  wonder if all belray is like that or if the syn is ok...maybe just go straight motul...yeah, i didnt like that carbon crap....maybe i need sum of that sea foam ppl talk about....lmao

[art]

  Seafoam is good, I have had the same results with all bel ray products,It's great if you plan to tear down your motor every 4 hours Ha! Get some yamalube if it's local if not  i'm not sure right now I,m trying the motul but hav'nt had a chance to run much 50+ has been down,but its back!!! check the people 50 thread loads OH fun Ha!
