    the tappets could make it run like that as the vlaves will not be opening fully if they are loose(out of adjustment)

    they are the locknut and screw type on those engine you need to remove top engine cover to get to them and need to use feeler gauges to set correct gap between rocker and valve

    the bleed nipple is already fitted to brake caliper if you look on the front edge of it at the highest point it looks like a bolt with hole in the top,it might have a rubber cap on it
  11. eastanglianbiker
    you need a spanner to fit the bleed nipple,it is normally 8 or 10mm and a piece of hose to go from nipple into a clean container

    if your chain is that loose then yes it could be slipping round and jumping teeth on either sprocket so it sounds like its new chain and sprocket set time

    the vacuum doesnt work if you have the fuel tap in the prime position that allows free flow of petrol, you should only ever have tap in the prime positionif you have drained the carbs or run out of petrol and then as soon as the bike starts move tap back to the on or reserve position

    sounds like the battery could be dieing put volt meter across it with engine not running and with it running to check out what reading you get as it could be reg/rec over charging battery and boiling it dry of acid so check voltage if readings are fine then new battery time by sounds of it

    as the new fluid is coming out as long as you are saving it into a clean jar/tub you can reuse it to top up

    regardless of age of cable check it isnt fraying at the top or the bottom and if it is fine make sure it is adjusted correctly or it might be time for a new set of clutch plates
