Sounds like this thing is fucking bunk and get a boyer and call it a day!

Hey did you ever get this resolved I'm having the exact problems to a T

Did you have to decrease the pilot jet as well or just the main?

So you really do drop it down that much that's crazy. Explains why I couldn't get the bike to fire up after putting them on.

What was your original jet set up I'm trying to run this with duel vm34s with a big bore kit and there's no info on the ufos

5twins sometimes you do what you got to do even if it costs you all of your motor functions haha:hump:

When I said pull it out I meant her I had to pull her back out as in the bike lol but I opened up the covers checked the valves. They were all good, put the covers back on and compression was back and she fired right up I guess it was a fluke.:doh: I think I've done a all right job with my...

Alright ill pull it out again tomorrow. Then ill check back. How do I exactly properly adust the valve lashes

A mechanic told me to just change the very top rocker head. Was not aware that it needed to be a matching set. Yes it was running perfectly fine minus the oil leak which was the cause for the switch, I have not compression tested it don't exactly have that in the garage, and timing is exactly...

Okay I replaced the very top head cause the old one had stripped oil bolt holes. I just pulled the old top cylinder head off and put the new one on. Now it wont start, I have spark from plugs but feels like low compression when I kick it over. It also admits a big whooshing noise from the carbs...

They replaced a piston, yes they did take the head off and no they didn't replace the electronics. They didn't bore out the cylinders just honed them for scratches and I'm still getting good spark from the ignition coil, also the bike when it does run when I throttle down the rpms won't change...

I had an oil leak from a cracked oil pan so it would lose oil pretty bad, and there was some days when I had to get to work and it wasn't an option. They said they would look at it, but it'll be in two weeks and this is my main transportation

81 xs 650 bobbed with a engine rebuild under its belt ran perfectly before the rebuild just punched a piston cause it was running lean

I took my bike to a shop to have it re-built everything ran perfectly fine before,but now it'll run for a little bit now and then shut off I took the carbs off and cleaned them, changed spark plugs, fuel filter, and new gas and its still not running properly. Any ideas or suggestions.
