I went to Ken's Motorcycle tires today to pick up my 607's and headed home with 2 24's, stopped by O'rileys for some carb cleaner got the kdx up on the stand and removed the seat tank sidecovers carb and reed cage after carefully cleaning around the cage and carb so nothing would drop into the engine...actually read the directions and installed the 607's (Boysen reeds)
Hey thats the ups truck with my RMA order sprockets socks and some jets and a but plug for the fmf silencer I took the but plug out of the package and stuck it in (kdx didn't even jump)
well this is a good day I though as I cracked a 24 open and took a few swigs
I looked over thereed cage to see if there where any gaps and everthing looked fine so back together everthing went, now about 5:30 I want to see what the reeds do for performance so I roll it out of the garage and kick then kick again ...this aways starts on the second kick... so I kick about three more times hmmm took the choke off tried some more nothing so I cracked the throttle wide open and it started then died ...WTF ...
I took the plug out and cleaned it up and stuck it back tried again same crap Hmmmm I took the carb off and cleaned it real good Idle main and choke circuits put everything back together same crap so off came the carb again with the reed block this time too fliped the reeds as intructed in the paper work put the carb back on and Crap same thing
So I took the plug out and swaped with a cr85 in for rebuild just to see same wont run.
By this time 9:15, I'm pissed off and want to go hide in the bed and sleep and started thinking what could be the problem then I looked back and saw the new but plug and said to myself no F'n way I took it out and put my plug back in and ..........Ring ding ..ding ding
so now I'm a happy bone head that has to wait till tomorrow to try out the new reeds!!!
What do you think do I win???
