[QUOTE="Canadian Dave, post: 121709, member: 16102"] There is a misprint in many of the Factory shop manuals that wrongly identifies the KIPS sub-port valves. Its therefor not uncommon to find engines with the sub-port valves reversed. A quick check is to pull the pipe and look up into the exhaust port. The sub-port valves should be completely closed. While you are there you'll also want to have a look at the main (center) valve as well. Over time carbon can cause it to hang up and not fully close. If its heavily carboned its likely long overdue for a cleaning. If you pull the top end be sure to properly support the main KIPS shaft to prevent it from being damaged and remember the nut on top is reverse thread. If you do a search and can't find more detailed instruction on the topic get back to us here and we'll go over it again. I do have an article to post on this subject I just need to find the time . . . . . :( If the valves look ok get back to us and we'll get into it in more detail. David [/QUOTE]
