shoot, detonation sucks

The bottom wouldn't have hit like that if you did... (the deto has to be from the main jet, right?) or at least 99% of the time.

i am thinking the pop off is the culprit of the hesitation i had on the botom cuz man tht is gone for sure withthe lower popoff

this is my proposal
keep the popoff where i am ( it is 1.5 n/s and 65gm spring) was at 1.5 and 95 gm with a early throttle hesitation

take the pilot to 77.5 ( to help with continuued rough starting tht i had after bringing the jet down from 80 and starting with a touch of the buttom) and the main to 135
does that sound reasonable to anyone / everyone given i just exploded and like a dummy did not do the pressure test again before tear down to verify an airleak. :banghead:

Leave the pilot where it is at... we can still richen it up a little to get more gas in there by turning the screw. The low end was ripping (why change it?). Only change one jet at a time.

I know you'll be putting that other one right back in ... it'll be too rich on the bottom and you'll be bogging.

yeah maybe? just odd that it was easy to start with 80 and not so at 75
i figured cut the difference and go middle of the road, maybe i'll leave it at 75 then though

Shooot, would you rather have to give it a little gas to start it... and have it run like ********?

Or a little harder to start and rip.

Like he said, change one jet at a time.

And, of course it was running great , it was lean. They always run realy strong and responsive when your leaning from an air leak.

leave the 75 (start rich and work your way in)
change to 135 ( it takes alot of time)

i was at 80 on the pilot prior to the bringing her dwon to 75 and blowing up though


i am gonna leave teh 75 for now, jump up to 135 and keep the pop off low since that is where the best throttle response was

i hope it was not an air leak, the fresh motor only had about 10 hrs on it and held pressure for like 15 or 20 mibnutes when i did a pressure test before installing it

now i got to go get a helicoil kit though, the heat from deto weakened some cyl. threads damn:banghead:

Jeffro says around 11 or noon at his shop for the test tank...He says when we leave, we will both be carb masters. He plans on giving us a tutorial while he dials your ski in. I'll call you in the morning. My engine is now put back together. All I gotta do is put on the manifold and carbs and drop it back in...:woot:Any luck with the heliocoils

He said it will go very quickly in that tank. :biggrin:

cool
just have to pressure test and put the flywheel on then stick her all back together
oh and swap out the jets

helicoils worked like a charm

damn. leak down test is showing i have a leak. stupid thing is i can't find it.

sprayed the whole thing with soapy water . the crank seals are holding , nothing seems to be letting air out but it's not holding pressure. maybe it's my rig. shoot
i did have one leak where i capped off the intake manifold but that was an easy find and easy fix. nothing else is bubbling though.

nope, base gasket is not leaking i can't find it but it's not there, i ran out of dish soap so have to try again another time????????????????????????????????/

all i can think of is somewhre onthe bottom of the cases or intake, that is the only place i have not really looked at yet

i put the last base gasket in dry but 3 people told me i should put a thin coat of 1211 on it

You don't need 1211. They allready have a coating on them that makes them stick... Adding 1211 is making it like you have 3 gaskets.. more places to leak.

Did you try just pumping air into a capped off hose to see if your system is leaking?

on a oem gasket it has a small bead of funk the one i have is paper only, so it's is not really a whole lot of anything extra,

i pumped the air into a bottle and it held pressure, so it's not the rig, it's the motor:bigeyes: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
