Help! GS750 carbs/running on my chop!
Finally, I rebuilt my carbs and got the GS750 chop fired up! (Its a 1979). Problem is, it will only run when the choke is nearly full on (about three quarters on). Any attempt to turn choke off or even down a little bit and the engine cuts out. Any attempt to increase throttle, engine cuts out.
I guess that the set-up is making it run lean. It has unidentified conical air filters, a bit like K&N and a strait-thru pipe with no name on! It seems to make no difference at the moment whether filters are on off, so I guess they are pretty 'strait-thru', too. So I'm guessing I need to adjust the mixture, but I'm not quite sure how to do it (which screws?!!). There's a screw underneath the float bowl (its the only one still visible when the float bowl is on) and theres a screw on the top/side of the carb barrells - I'm guessing one of these might be the one!
Currently the carbs have 110 jets in. Do you think I'll be able to get running with these, or will I need to go up more.
If anyone can educate me in these carbs, I'd love to learnm.
Thanks,
2R.
