Thanks for the info guys.
I have already done the carb. I believe my float valve was sticking or not closing. It runs fine now & dosn't have gas coming back through the breather after the repair.
I think my pet "thingy" (guess its a censor thing) is OK as I don't have a gas leak when the tank is removed. I assume, please correct me if I am wrong, that if it was bad I would have gas running without the vacuum pulling & eventually draining to the crankcase while the tank was mounted. Yes / No?
I've not ridden the bike enough to know if it needs the spacer thinned, but it seems as though "others" (anybody watch LOST)
have been in the carb before me. The plug was pulled on the idle mixture.
I don't recall there being 3 positions for the clip, but I'll double check. If not I may try a couple #4's & not trim the spacer. Then I can put it back if I need to.
I'm enjoying the project. I think I might turn it into a flat tracker after the wife decides if she wants to keep it or get another bike. Change the rake, remove the airbox, K&N, flat seat, high pipe.
I saw a pix of one somewhere on the web. Any of you guys seen it or know who's it is?
Back to the garage.
Thanks again.
