Jets
-
What size jets people running on full dep cause my bike seems to be lacking petrol in higher gears
-
Just a dep and pinned pv was 240 standard so thinking I should take it up to 250
-
Sorting the pv is way to expensive bikes stands me in over £2000 already Lol gunna change the jets and the reeds see if that helps as haven't got the money to fix the pv
-
@vtrn_raptor Well you're ignoring the problem then aren't you a little?
You could end up chucking money on it unnecessarily when all you needed to do was fix the powervalve?
240 jet on full dep is fine. So unless there are any other mods then I think you probably won't fix the problem just chucking jets at it. Just means you'll be wasting more fuel.
-
I won't to sort it but I don't no what the problem is with the pv I changed the servo and that wasn't the problem and a cdi is £200
-
@vtrn_raptor well surely it's cheaper to fix the pv rather than waiting for it to seize or something
-
Yeah true
-
Cant see pinning the pv would be a issue mine 95 model didnt come with a servo and the pv is pinned wide open on that and its covered 600 miles in the last 3wks with not a single problem
-
@andrewj1680 no maybe it won't but it's designed to have a working powervalve so you can't expect it to run perfect if one piece of the puzzle is missing
-
Ok so i have a S reg here that ive bought to rebuild the pv as you can see has been pinned it pulls nice and strong every gear to the point it comes off the clock yet i dont have the same issues as above and the only difference is i have a standard front pipe -
My last one ran perfect with pinned pv to and had a 170 on it this ones only been doing this since I rebuilt it and put a dep on it
-
Totally different bike to ride without, the powervalve hits so much harder when it kicks in, the servo just smoothes out the power delivery i think but definitely prefer it without but each to their own i guess
-
The problem is the exhaust was perfectly fine before I did the rebuild power valve kicks in perfect up to third 4ths sluggish 5-6 no power at all starts to die same thing happens on peds if theirs not enough fuel it won't pull
-
@andrewj1680 Absolutely mate.
No arguments there, it's an absolute riot with the powervalve switched off.
But the bike performs much better with the valve.
It's why I like old school vtec civics, the ragging factor haha

The reason it feels better in the top with the PV pinned is because the difference between lowend and topend is bigger. The bike is really sluggish in the low revs.
With a prperworking PV, you get the best of both worlds, and going WOT in high revs, theres no part of the PV visible in the exhaust port, so no restriction at all.
