Fuel for my hire bus!
#31
ok fitted 1x coil today to replace the buggered one,well so i thought ? bike still rooted ,SO,
right while bike was running today ,i grabbed the wiring harness and gave it a good pull ,what the fOOk ,bike jumped up onto 4 cylinders?,ok tank seat back off ,got out the olfa knife cut the harness open at various places ,found a broken power wire for the fan rubbing on the frame, checked all solder joint found the power for the low beam hanging by one thread of wire,then thought id take the battery and computer out ,I lookED close at computer wiring ,a big red wire ,snapped off just sitting there, closer inspection showed it had been repaired in the past ,and has 3 inches of red wire soldered into it ,to make it longer,when i looked at the computer plug there was 2mil of bare wire hanging out of it,i managed to rejoin it with solder, the cable tied it tight to the wire next to it to stop movement,WISH ME LUCK,

looks like tathra is out,went and started the bus this morn ,still missing ,so i didnt want to ,but i got the valve leak down tester out, and lets say im very pissed off and feeling very let down ,as ive only done 4k on my bus since i bought it ,and it has 2x burnt inlet valves on #1 & #3,i feel completely gutted $7500 for a bike thats shit itself ,so on a happier note anyone got a head that they want to sell as rebuilding the existing one is not going to cost me $1800,they can stick that price ,

I would be very surprised to see burnt inlet valves
i have burnt the crap out of exhaust valves and seats running the turbo bike lean on a long track at Bonneville but never seen a damaged inlet

only inlet problems i have seen were from cam timing malfunctions

i had another thought ,i might have knocked a lobe or 2 off the cam,im thinking tomorrow is the day to pull the motor,

Ok you have leakdown in 1 & 3 ,what % , and did you isolate the leak to any particular area
usually hear it clearly with a hose as a stethiscope at the breather, or either inlet or exhaust port

on #1 it blew out the inlet about 10% on #3 it came out the inlet as well but only about 2% if that makes sense ,il do a retest in the morning and write everything down,ive decided that if i cannot fix it by thursday ,im going to wreck the bike and buy another busa ,Roll
heres a picci of the fuel filter and colour of the fuel

ok found the problem,
ok gutted n oldspark plug welded alenght of hollow tube to it ,then at the top welded on a ryco air fitting ,wound my compressor reg up to 100psi ,then got motor on TDC, the let her have the air #1 perfect no air from inlet exhaust ,or crank cases 234 all good so the leak down tester i got has a drama ,
i pulled out #3 injector as it was leaking at the fuel rail ,i thought while out il swap it with 1 just to check ,bam #1 dead ,so i did spark fuel ,plenty of spark, but plug dry ,so i started the motor, while idling i sprayed areostart down number 1 bike jumped onto 4 cylinder ,so went and flow tested all injectors ,the injector from #1 dripping ,and spraying but very weak, so i found the prob ,i hope i got a FEW 2nd hand nijectors coming from a running bike
