Hi guys,
Finally got my 87' Aspy running, but I had to prime the hell out of it with carb cleaner and throttle it up to get it running.
My question is: is there anything that can be done with the choke. It doesn't seem like the choke helps at all on cold start. Once i get the bike running and warmed up it will idle at 900rpm, and it runs and drives fine. It's just getting it started when it's cold.
I'm not sure what to do. I replaced, the lines, the fuel filter, I checked the fuel pump and it's putting out about 750ml/minute.
I completely rebuilt all four carbs, new jets, needle valves, seals, and set float levels to 7mm. I drained and flushed the tank and am running 92 octane gas.
Like I said, i can get it running and warmed up with priming it with carb cleaner, and once it warms up, it runs fine and idles. But I can't seem to get the damn choke to work properly.
And yes, I measured the travel for the choke valves, approx 5-6mm difference between closed and fully open...help???
