My friend can't get his motorcycle to idle well and we are trying to figure out what is wrong with it. Hopefully someone can help us out in figuring what's going on.
My friend purchased carburetor from a guy whose son had it sitting in the garage doing nothing. The son had took the carburetor off and used it on a different bike.
My friend rebuilt the carburetor, put new air, new plugs (basic tuneup), checked the valve clearances, coils, timing boots (for leaks) compression and battery.
The bike fires up runs hot on two of the four and cold on the last two. Also it doesn't really idle and he has to hold full throttle to keep it from stalling.
He doubled checked and pulled the carburetor out again and went over with a fine comb. The fuel delivery is strong, the air is good and there is spark. It cant do anything but neutral but the flooding he will have to check out because it does have a slight wetness to plugs
What could be wrong with his bike? Thank you all for your help and advice.
