Carbs...

[Islandstar]

Took the carbs off my bike to change jets after I put on new exhaust. Put the carbs back on just now, but bike wont start, just keeps turning over. I checked the float bowls and there's no fuel in #4 float bowl. What could I have forgotten? I also noticed that there is only one carb vent hose on the carb (I think it was that way when I took them off), could this be part of my problem? It an oil cooled Suzuki GSX 750.

AW: Carbs...

the other bowls are filled with fuel?

check the fuel lines...sounds like theres somthing blocking fuel to your carb..

Checked the lines...there's a vent line that comes from the tank, I changed that and it started but it's idling high so I'll work on that now

Got the bike running with new jets, but it ran like sh!t, so I decided to put it back to stock. Bike starts but rev really high, idle screw has no effect on the idle!!!! I have the petrol mix screw back out 2 1/4 turns as it says in the manual, what am I missing. Thanks in advance.

maybe the gas bowden is too tight...the bike "thinks" your pulling the gas grip full throttle...

Check for a pinched throttle cable if you took your tank off. IF that's not it, check your carb boots for leaks.

Make sure the slides are in the right way, If they aren't it will idle pretty high though.

Thanks for the responses guys..likes like there were a few issues(some still going on), the cables weren't routed properly and the carbs weren't seated properly on the block. Still have a throttle cable issue, but i'll deal with that later.
