Can anyone help me find it?<br>Carbs snatchy at 1000-4/5000 rpm makes low speed cornering hard.<br>Looked at tubes and they looked ok<br>Got new jets and needles to install, thought i would just check every thing on all carbs.<br>Waiting on Carb balancing tool to arrive, so pull carbs apart in the mean time, then setup and see if problem is solved?<br><br>Thanks <br>Nel5on <p></p><i></i>

well...heres a <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://factorypro.com/Prod_Pages/prody73.html" target="top">LINK</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> to at least show the concept. Bear in mind you will need to pre-determine the 12-14mm mark on the credit card (in this case) so that you may then hold it against the carb base in order to measure float height without having the plunger sink in. <p><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:steelblue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:medium;">-John </span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> <!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v485/ ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;"> <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/ ... cement.jpg" target="top">1995 FZR1000</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> <br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;"> <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/ ... 00x600.jpg" target="top">1990 FZR1000</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> <br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;"> <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/ ... resize.jpg" target="top">1990 FZR1040</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i></i>

Yes your tubes may look fine, but they will go and if they're off and apart, factory needles would go great, as per float height, if problem persists, try 1mm lower fuel level. Make sure the the flaot needle touches the the tang, but doesn't press in the top spring. <br><br>Chuck D. <p></p><i></i>
