Title: Bike is "trailering"
Post by Toymaker on 08/19/10 at 13:50:19

Mrs. T isn't happy. Her Savage is lurching. I have just recently changed over to the Raptor petcock and had to clean out the main jet because there was NO WOT. Now she says it is lurching badly. Is it the pilot jet too that has crap in it?

I think so, but whaddayall think? Oh, I also changed the plug.

Did you remember to block off the vacuum tap on the carb?...

More like lurching at around 35-40 mph....I didn't notice it but she did. I will seaform it over the weekend.

Could it be described as surging, as in what mite be caused by a lean fuel condition ? Such a condition can be annoying, but easily rideable.

Probably what we men call surging,
seafoam it,
next would be full clean,
then white spacer mod.

I didn't notice it either, maybe cause I wasn't loafing. ;D
