Looking for someone to repair engine toward Narre

[darkaz]

Hi guys,

hoping someone can help - I'm looking for someone to get my engine running as sweet as it used to - seems to be running super rich and rough since it hasn't been on the road for a few years :(

Ideally someone out toward Narre Warren would be great - if it's a willing member who will work for beers (&/or cash) then that's even better :D - keeping in mind the bike is not roadworthy or registered so needs to be transported unless worked on site (makes beer delivery even easier).

Cheers

John

Just to clarify - any recommendations on shops/businesses is fine (not just looking for cheap options here ;) )

What sort of bike?,have you looked at the air filter?, changed plugs/fuel since?
If that is to much for you, call redline in dandy and spend the dough. She'll be runnin sweet again.

I'll be able to help you out John, PM me your phone No & I'll call in & have a look before Deanos party on Satdy.

scotty: It's a 95 CBR600 - have cleaned the K&N filter, fresh fuel in the tank, new battery, good plugs - still no go. I've been working through the workshop manual but I'm still not 100% confident on stripping the carbies down (if required).

Thanks TurboKat - pm on it's way soon

I reckon we can manage that Scotty, and while we are on the subject, I might just throw the GS's head in the car coz I need help changing the valves.

sounds like the carbs need a good clean, bit of mold fuel dried up in there blocking shit up, same thing happened to the ZX7 when i left her sitting for a while

well things are looking better already...

I rechecked all the plugs again this morning and noticed they weren't looking great - and one possibly wasn't even firing (albeit only a few 100 kms on them before bike was taken off the road)

Fresh plugs and blam! Idling as it should be...

Not 100% smooth - but to be honest it's been that long since I last had it running as it should that I can't remember how lumpy it was/wasn't!

As a result I'm not sure if carbs actually need a look at - but more that happy for you guys to swing past for some advice ;)

[darkaz]

Just a quick thanks to TurboKat - your advice over the phone has her idling real sweet now :)

time to get some wiring hidden and bodywork sorted now...

[TurboKat]

No worries John, glad to see you got it sorted.
We have a rule here... pics or it never happened. Giz a look at this CBR6 of yours.

[scotty]

pics or it never happened:D
