Recommended reeds?

[declan]

@Calum sorry lads quick side questing connected my autolube up and ran the bike but no oil coming out do I need to bleed it or what?

[Zrako]

@declan yes you need to bleed the autolube mate. When Im rebuilt my engine , I ran on few litres of premix to bleed my pump. There is a rubber blind pipe with small clamp on . Let the bike idling and manually twist the pump pull-wheel with the small pipe off , I have transparent pipes so Im seen when it start coming to the inlet. Might not be best method but worked for me ...

[declan]

@Zrako appreciate it I did the same as you only with no bleed valve I'll give it a go thank you.

[Calum]

@declan Once it's bled through that blind system then put the nipple back on and just ride the bike.

Obviously run the bike with premix initially to just ensure you have oil in the engine.

@Calum it's working now bud thanks can you get v force reeds for the dt I just whooped some guys ass in a race but he said get some v force reeds and re jet

[declan]

@declan not only were all my reeds no good but my inlet manifold is completely screwed

[Calum]

@declan Lol. V Force Reeds.

It's more the V Force Reed block that you should be concerned with, and no you cannot.

Shouldn't worry though it's not going to drastically change performance. So long as you have some carbon reeds or plastic then that'll suffice.

[declan]

@Calum you mocking me m9?

[Calum]

@declan No? I was just saying I am pretty sure it's the cage you want not the reeds as I think the stock ang or carbonreeds are about as good as you can get. So don't waste your money.

[declan]

@Calum I'm kidding, I'm new to 2 stroke so I thought v force also did reeds but I've salvaged mine if flipped them and Gonma repair the inlet rubber and need to clean the carb after that hopefully she goes good

[Calum]

@declan A lot of crossers use v force reed blocks. They look like nice kits.

[declan]

@Calum so the reed flip gave me tones more compression carb cleaned intake boot repaired but I've still got the little bog/ stutter from idle would you say the idle jet needs increasing?

[Calum]

@declan You running the snorkel bud?

[declan]

@Calum yeah

[Calum]

You got the boost bottle fitted?

[declan]

@Calum yeah everything is connected and buttoned up it was doing this before I rebuilt it so it's not something I've caused pv works great so I got no idea you don't notice it when riding unless your practicing wheelies

[Calum]

Slight hesitence under load then?

[Calum]

@declan Oh yeah that sounds like it's running lean.

You could just try a lower needle setting on the carb. See if that cleans it up slightly.

[declan]

@Calum will do thanks bud
