  1. Also, I was thinking, if the float was stuck, would some compresses air up the fuel outlet on the carb not free it?or a small piece of wire?
  2. Guys, to all those that commented thank you, I took the newly replaced coils off again today, and took the cap off, although they tested up ok with the multimeter they looked fairly worn, trimmed the ends and replaced, checked all over leads but still seemed to that dead spot, noticed pipe 3 was cooler than the rest, kept on tinkering, tapped each carb fairly hard then the engine started to idle better, revs seemed higher, put the tank back on and decided to give it a razz down the bypass. Definitely a huge improvement, I'd its sorted or not I ain't sure yet as I was still getting a delay on pick up, so all the things I tried were coil pack swap x 2, 4 x spark plug swap, liquid molly additive, checked all cables running to the coils, trimmed coil pack leads by 5mm and re fit and also tapped all carbs with a screw driver. I did notice when I got home that pipe 3 was definitely hotter than it was previous, but not as hot as the other 3, I have now put some new fuel in and hoping that it runs through and sorts the issue. Debating if it's worth running more liquid molly through to may dislodge more dirt? Tha ks again.everyone
  3. Hi thanks for your message. So would you think the issue lays from the spark plugs backwards? With the plugs been changed yesterday am I best re looking at the plug caps and coils? Cheers
  4. Another update. Changed the plugs (all 4) still no joy, tested for a spark from the leads, screw driver in the cap and held bear the housing, clear spark from each but must admit it wasn't hugely strong. I did notice that pipe 1 and 3 weren't very hot where as 2 and 4 were to hot to touch. Pipe 1 was warm but not burning hot
  5. Thanks stu. Did a little bit of tinkering before, making sure I had leads in the right order. Noticed a huge difference by wiggling one of the leads, is that normal? Might just be me but I'm sure it sounded better with it unplugged.
  6. Guys, I have run some carb cleaner through the bike (liquid molly) and still having the same issue. Beat way I can describe it is like a hiccup on tick over and alot of stalling, huge delay on revs when throttle is turned. I am going to swap out all.4 spark plugs tomorrowto see if that helps. Is there any where to put a small video Hopefully highlighting the issue? Cheers
  7. Thank you. I will try it also as its a relatively easy possible solution
  8. I will give that a go, any brand better than the other?. Cheers
  9. Would you recommend changing the plugs to see if that helps?
  10. I'm not sure it has one mate, I will check later on this aft. Hoping to get it sorted soonish as the better weather is around the corner
  11. Stu, Il get it give that a go this afternoon and see if a quick tap on the float bowl sorts it. From what I can remember it was still intermittently sluggish when the choke was on. As it was ticking over yesterday it sounded like there was a dead spot, if that makes sense
  12. Thanks guys, yeah its been laid up over winter, out side as well under a oxford cover. Carbs were refurbished around October time so I'm really hoping it ain't that. No it doesn't have a in-line fuel filter that I'm aware of and the fuel has been in there a couple of month. It was running fine on a ride out a few week back and after around 40 miles it just seemed to happen all of a sudden, power just dropped, pulled over then it struggled to start, would only start with choke open half way. Cheers guys
  13. Hi mate, thanks for the reply, helped alot. Managed to swap them today without taking the tank off. Unfortunately it hasn't solved the issue, still a huge delay in the pick up, really sluggish, could it just be a spark plug issue? Cheers
  14. Afternoon gents, Question for the hands on lads, been having an issue with my fazer 600 1999 lately, really sluggish then kicks in then sluggish again, also leading to bad start unless choke is open. Got a new coil pack and leads, are these fairly simple to install? Or is there loads of bits to be removed first? Cheers
