Blade fuelling concerns
All,
I fitted my custom made/design exhaust and started the engine for the first time complete form the drivers position sitting in the car..after 6
years!
Anyway the engine is a Blade with rejetted stage 1 dayno jet kit, individual cone filters and a 4-2-1 exhaust. The engine start fine (without any
throttle or choke)revs nicely although when blipping the throtte it tends to misfire but revved progressively seems fine. I put in a set of new plugs
and upon insepction I found out that the plugs from cylnders 1 & 3 were looking with slight brownish (as should be) whilst those from 2 & 4
wet and black with fuel.
Is it a case of adjusting the idle/mixture screw, balancing the carbs or something else?
Philip

balancing could be
anyway it goes with less air /to much fuel (rich) as the other 2..
cleaning? would be an option if they stood for 6 years!
Tks
The above comments are always meant to be from the above persons perspective.

I presume 2 and 4 have their own coil, may be worth checking its sparking OK on those 2.

hi
Maybe a red herring and certainly not an expert but learning fast!
When I had my carbs checked, the mechanic chappy told me that I didnt have one of the air lines blocked that needed to be to balance out the carbs. It
was causing 1+3 to be drawing different amounts of air... ????
I can try to trace the particular hose this weekend if required?
good luck!
