    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

more problems,more questions!

hi all, more stuff happening with my 1980 gsx 750. just reset valves, cleaned carbs and fitted new exhaust rubbers.still running rough and noticed that there is a petrol leak at the air filter side,at the rubber from one of the carbs,could understand it drawing air, but not leaking fuel, cant be sealed properly,think my clamp must be worn,which I am going to try and replace today,do you think that there still a blockage in the carb?another thing going on after setting valves is quite a loud tappity noise from top left of engine,am sure got settings right...but may have to go in check again, unless there is a connection with faulty carb... in a bit of a black hole here,all suggestions appreciated,cheers
 
Fuel leak may be caused by a sticking needle. Tap on the bowl for said carb.

As for cleaning carbs, did you do a FULL dip?

If you went a bit looser on the specs for the valves, they may tap a little bit.
 
I know in myself didn't clean thoroughly,lacking going in too deep,is there a how to clean carbs,step by step thread? Have to take them off to replace clips anyway.and will recheck valves...endless!��
 
Muchly appreciated! Just ordered new clamps to airbox,so got a couple of days before they arrive. Will study link tonite,many thanks again ��
