really weird on my bike!!!!!

[cr85re]

so let me no if im right.if they're is a a little soot on your mixture ring then your good but if they're is none then you are to lean if they're is alot the you are to rich?

 

[_JOE_]

Basically, but make sure you either have a viewer or cut off the threaded portion.

 

[whenfoxforks-ruled]

You skimmed over the part about the burn ring only being for the mainjet? It is in all them links that were posted earlier. a manual will teach you basic maintenance and how to properly refer to parts for questions. If your plug looks like somebody sandblasted the end of it stop riding it and get reading!

 

[cr85re]

ok.another question.do i put the same oil i run in my gas in my oil tank.you call that your oil tank right?but you get what im saying.cause someone told me not to.i run klotz snowmobile oil right now so do i use the same oil for everything on my bike?(sorry if this question sounds stupid) and i still haven't picked up that book because i have no car

 

[IndyMX]

No, premix oil is for mixing..

You run gear oil or something similar for your TRANSMISSION.. it's not called an oil tank..

 

[cr85re]

ok.sorry.oops.....how bad will that mess up my bike.do i do a oil change and get all that out?and then put gear oil in theyre?

 

[IndyMX]

ok.sorry.oops.....how bad will that mess up my bike.do i do a oil change and get all that out?and then put gear oil in theyre?

Yes, right after you get your manual. Which, incidentally will answer a lot of your other questions too..

 

[cr85re]

can i run it like that for now?

 

[IndyMX]

can i run it like that for now?

I wouldn't... put the proper amount of 15w30 Shell Rotella T in it, and you'll be fine.

 

[cr85re]

so the container will say exactly what you wrote?

 

[IndyMX]

Yep.. and you can get it at Walmart...

 

[cr85re]

and its good?

 

[IndyMX]

Sure.. I use it.. And I have read a lot of other people on here use it also.

 

[cr85re]

oh ok.how much?

 

[IndyMX]

It's about 8 bucks for a gallon bottle here..

 

[cr85re]

ok thanks.

 

[Patman]

Anybody get the feeling their chain might be getting jerked by cr85re?

 

[flyingfuzzball]

sounds to me like someone desperately needs a manual.

 

[cr85re]

um yeah but i don't have money to go but anything and i need to get to somewhere.how much are they?i have like 10$ to my name now.sorry.if i don't have a manual i have to ask some one right?my dad has no clue what he is doing.

Maybe you can get your dad to buy a manual? Explain to him how much he could learn, and how much money he can save by being able to work on the bike yourselves. :nod:

Maybe he'll even read a chapter to you for a bedtime story. :rotfl:

ok add of this.um.what patman or indy mx said my ratio should never chaange from 32:1????i have been running 40:1.does taht sound lkike what i should be running?im sorry im in the middle of gettin a manual.until then....but yeah do any of you guys run that?if not what do you run?

 

[whenfoxforks-ruled]

Why would you NOT believe Indy and Patman? If your manual says to run 32:1, what is the problem? So maybe you know a guy with a ktm, he is running 100:1! The ratio can vary from model to year. There is no benefits from changing, except in bizzarro land. If your bike has issues, it is not the ratio's fault!

 

[cr85re]

psshss.wow this is what i get for asking a question.

 

[IndyMX]

If you did a search on here, you'd be quick to discover that most people run 32:1.

There are some that run 40:1, but most of them are using synthetic oil. Then there are a few that are running other ratios.

If you had a service manual, you'd see that it most likely recommends 32:1.

Why is this such a hard thing for you to wrap your mind around?

 

[cr85re]

i run synthetic whats the difference?and i dont have a manual yet.so until then.
