    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

its all back together now she wont start

nope didnt remove the wires and they're on the correct cylanders...when i replced the head i didnt check the clearances as i do not have a feeler gauge...i just assumed that the newely adjusted valves would stay adjusted

Do a compression test and make sure all the cylinders are around the same figure. Let us know what they are. Do them cold with WOT -- not perfect but will do to get a ball park figure and see if there is a problem in that area.

I am sorry I thought you had good compression across all cylinders.
These posts seem to all melt together.

I don't know for sure but i do know that before the bike ran great so I would assume it had sufficient compression...but i guess we will find out tomorrow
 
alright heres the verdict...at wot cold all cylanders are running about 130psi with about a 3-5psi variance...all cylanders were tested by cranking the motor with the e-start...im guessing this is how you are supposed to do it anyway but i figured id tell ya just in case...also all other plug holes had the spark plug installed when not being tested

alright well ill just assume that 130psi is sufficient...tonight i will be checking valve clearances...and then pulling the carbs again...ugh...i have done a valve job before with steve but not by myself...the biggest problem for me is working out the numbers...keep an eye out for questions that i am sure ill have
