Ok..no change so I will start from the beginning.

1982 gs850l, headgasket was leaking oil when I bought and was unsafe to drive. Replaced the headgasket and the cam tunnel seal, triple checked timing after I put it back together, removed and cleaned the jets in the carbs whileninhad them off. Was going to install air pods but now after reading I am double thinking that. Reinstalled the air box this evening and bike just cranks. When I engage the throttle it cranks faster but just never sounds like it wants to hit. It does not pop or try and backfire. I did notice that the wire plug is for the coils is cracked. I have a 80 750 that I am going to try and steal the plug off it.any other suggestions would be great. The bike ran before this, crappy but it did run.

Cleaning the jets is only a part of it.
go to the Basscliff site and read the CV carb cleaning tutorial, and follow that

Bigt..yes it ran, but it had a bad oil leak from the headgasket. I replaced the headgasket and that was when I was going to do the pods and stuff. Right now the exhaust and air box are off. Just cranks and acts like it is not firing. I have triple checked my timing and they are still dead on

Cam timing?

[wwhite0310]

Thanks T. I will get that kit ordered and get back with you.

[wwhite0310]

Obito (Uchiha?), wwhite0310 is no longer a member and this thread was last visited about 3-1/2 years ago. We'll never know if he got the bike running.

Welcome to the forum.
Let me suggest that you find the GS Owners Forum and make an introductory post about yourself and your bike. And if you're read this whole thread, you've seen references to The Top 10 newbie mistakes Thread and to BikeCliff's Website. Both are good places to start if your bike has issues. Both are linked in my signature.
