Question carb adjusting

[Bob]

I just adjusted the floats on my gs due to finding fuel in the oil. It now seems to have a good strong fire but blows abit of smoke. Is it just burning off the crap in it or is the mix wrong? Its a greyish smoke.

[Bob]

Forgot to add i have changed the oil too

? Did you do a complete engine rebuild? What was the compression like?

[Bob]

Compression is good. Around 160psi. Just have a good 50km ride and it seems to miss on cruising and idel. When i give it so throttle most the time its good

[Bob]

No i didnt do a rebuild

Sounds lean mate. I saw you mentioned you added pods, this will be giving it far more air than before, so you need to give it far more fuel as well. A Dyno will be your friend. Careful you're not running it lean mate!

[Bob]

Will do. Had a good chat with geoff last night (80s freak) since hes done one. Hopefully in on the right path now.

On the shitfighter when I first put pods on, I upped the jet from 117.5 to 150's

I had a stuck needle and seat a while ago and filled the sump full of fuel, check them before it goes ka-boom...
