    Sold / Found / Inactive - 78' 277 Rephase $1200

    Selling my 78' xs 650 277 rephase. Selling because I've spent the last two years trying to get it running perfectly but can't seem to get it right. I'm doing a lot more working on my bike than I am riding and I ain't no mechanic. Learned a lot but want to sell it to someone who actually knows...

    Cam chain timing?

    Im pretty sure all of my problems lie within the carbs. My cam chain timing was fine. I believe we go through how to check if its correct in this thread. As of now my bike has a massive air leak on the left choke housing of my carb, and I'm pretty much over trying to get it running right. Trying...

    Vacuum leak on fuel line?

    I guess I could try cleaning the float valve and seat again. I have an ultra sonic washer at work, think I should just throw them in there for cleaning?

    Vacuum leak on fuel line?

    Ok so it pumps it out the exhaust. Which means that if fuel was flowing out of my carbs and air filters then the likely culprit is fuel delivery (carbs).

    Vacuum leak on fuel line?

    At first I thought it was carbs. But I went through everything and it all seems fine. Float level, float valve, floats themselves no holes. I even threw on my spare 78' bs38 carbs and the problem was still the same on the right side. I thought that maybe my spark was so weak that the plug had...

    Also I love that this post was about an air leak and turned into fuel problems. Thanks for answering my questions and sticking through. Respect

    Vacuum leak on fuel line?

    Yea I'll check it out. Went on a ride with my dad and the bike broke down. Pulled to the side and fuel was pouring out of my carbs. Got it home, pulled the plugs and my right plug was soaked with oil or gas. So I'll check the coil resistance plugs and caps and see whats up. Maybe my right...

    Vacuum leak on fuel line?

    If I have a pamco 277 ignition. I would not be able to switch the spark plug leads to see if the problem goes to the other side correct? Because the cylinders fire at separate times?

    Vacuum leak on fuel line?

    How would I tell the difference? Also wouldn't oil leaking in show white smoke burning. Could also be weak spark I suppose.

    Vacuum leak on fuel line?

    Ahaha duly noted Did the float test and it seems to be ok. The floats are new and I've tested the valve before. Seems good. Initially I thought that maybe my valve seal was leaking oil into my cylinder thats why my plug is wet? Any thoughts?

    Vacuum leak on fuel line?

    Ahaha duly noted. I'll check float leaks, float valve and fuel level in the bowl today when I get home.
