Does a rich pilot effect riding

[declan]

@irongamer727 I put. A really old rusty plug in it’s yhe only one I had the bike starts first kick if I turn the af screw all the way in the bike dies as it should right?

[Irongamer727]

@declan make it fair and change to a decent plug. When you turn the screw in you get a richer mixture. (Less air) give the entire carb a good clean.

[declan]

@irongamer727 I’ve cleaned it out properly and yes clean plug will be got and fresh fuel tonight so I know I didn’t screw up the premix

[Calum]

Easiest way to figure out if its over fueling is to stifle the intake, if the problem worsens then you got too much fuel, if it improves then you haven't got enough fuel.

[declan]

@calum if I give it an air leak it runs better

[Calum]

@declan Yeah and risk the engine detonating or inhaling dirt. So you stifle the intake.

[declan]

@calum I’ll go finger the airbox 2 minutes

[Calum]

@declan Usually gaffer tape part of the air box or socvk over a pod filter.

[declan]

@calum I put a latex Glove over the snorkel it ran ok on idle but smoked loads and wouldn’t rev much it actually replicated the problem but on a worser scale so maybe the stock airbox is too restrictive? You can barely fit your pinky finger in the snorkel

[Calum]

@declan a latex glove! What??? Mate you justv want to lightly restrict the air flow not block it completely, you want something that breathes like a cotton sock.

[declan]

@calum yeah I knew that mate just testing you keeping you on your toes

[Irongamer727]

@declan

[declan]

@irongamer727 shhhhhh @Calum yeah it definitely worsens the issue

[declan]

@Calum i did try with a cotton sock btw

[Irongamer727]

@declan he's done with you after that latex glove

[declan]

@irongamer727 yeah figured as much I think he’s gone and contemplated life

[Calum]

@declan I've given it much thought and I've decided I've had enough of all this now and will be closing the site down permanently.

[declan]

@calum it’s probably for the best I need to be stopped my stupid actions know no bound this time it was a latex glove maybe next it will be sugar in the fuel
