    Using or blowing off lots of antifreeze?????

    I have two yam.gaskets and 10:1 pistons,works allright with our 98 oct. But I´ve been running on the edge of meltdown since I got the motor to run perfectly yesterday.It launched like a dragsled and pulled harder and harder,felt like 3-4 sec to 100 mph. Boostmeter has never showed more than...

    Pressuretest and leaking T:s

    Pulled of the intercooler and a lot of fuel ran out,at least 10 cc. What the #$%&* is going on now? Could it be a RICH condition instead?

    Pressuretest and leaking T:s

    Rx-rider:Thanks for the instructions and yes,I glued them but maybe the holes in inserts ended upp wrong in the T:s.one of them didn´t fit in the carb so I had to use a drill. I guess I have to take everything apart again,and another spoiled weekend:( I did a search on leaks/leaking and...

    Pressuretest and leaking T:s

    Does anyone no the theory behind this?From what I understand the lower line that goes from the intecooler to the double T:s between carbs,pressurize the floatbowls.forcing more fuel into carbs? The rubber T.s turned out to be without the aluinserts so I installed a pair and now it runs like...

    Pressure test for leaks

    While waiting for the oilpump I did some pressure test with soapwater on intercooler and carbs.It turned out that there is some serious leaking between the carbs,just where the throttleaxel goes through all carbs. The Throttleaxel has springs between every carbs and on one place it came a...

    smoki´n

    Well You were right guys,it was the oilpump.The axel to impeller had seised totaly and therefore the pin had snapped of. Why didn´t the pump get any oil after almost 800 miles?I haven´t done any major wrenching since installing the rearmount. Both hoses were not restricted,oilsupply hose...
