Hello,
I am in the final stages of a 77xs650 revival (at least I hope I am) and I am having a bit of a problem here. Literally almost everything on this bike is new and updated. Pamco ignition
new plugs
wires
caps
brand new VM34 carburetors,
just finished rewiring the bike and everything checks out there.
It turns over just fine and all, but the only thing it is burning is the carb cleaner I am spraying in there (I should not even need to do that!). It also has new fuel lines and filters and I can see that it IS getting fuel through the filters. I checked the floats, good to go. It seems as if it is not getting any gas though, even though I can clearly see that it has it. I am lost here for a clue. I even got new spring for the advance unit because the originals were too loose so I do not think that is it either. Any clues? Timing seems fine and all that too. It would appear to be a fuel problem, but I could easily be off base (usually am )
Any help is of course appreciated.
