99 Venture project bike carburetor issues.
Marcarl replied to jjven68's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
Pilot screws setting start at 2.5 turns out from bottom. Did you clean them as well, or could you not find them? Vacuum leaks are also a 'look at', but my guess would be to check the sync on all four. Often times people want to adjust the idle, look for a screw to do that with, find one and end up turning a sync screw instead,,, and yes, turning on a sync screw will adjust the idle somewhat, but do nothing for the overall picture,,,, and these motors will run amazingly well when they are out of sync. -
Ignition woes Part Duex
Marcarl replied to flyday58's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Just for insurance and to be on the cheap, replace the wires and caps. If it hasn't been done before, things are getting pretty old and tend to not work as well as when they were new. It saves the guessing game and then you know where you are at. -
How she runs?
Marcarl replied to Godlover's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
I get mine at the local Yammi dealer,,, just get a length and cut to measure. I think I got about 8ft last time,,, it's cheap. Needs to be the wire kind, not the carbon kind. -
CLASS system operation and pressure
Marcarl replied to Brenner's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
So now your going to pull that apart eh???? Some points then to help you along. Clean all connections and don't put dielectric grease on them, but you could spry them with Fluid-Film when they are back together, good stuff that!! Open up the dryer and carefully remove the silica gel that is used as a dryer material. Put the gel in a ceramic dish and nuke it for about 2 minutes,,, now it's dry to use again. Take off the exhaust rubber tubing, split the filter easy to come apart) and make sure that is all clean. Take the valves apart,,, be very careful, the springs in there are small, light and have a habit of taking a road of their own. So be careful!!!!! Check the inside of the valves, especially the seats, they can corrode a little, if they are, just use a small drill bit with some fine steel wool attached to the end to hone them clean. use air to clean and then reassemble, use no lubricant. -
CLASS system operation and pressure
Marcarl replied to Brenner's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
It should hold the set pressure. You will loose pressure as you check for pressure as mentioned, but this will be very little, but then very little means quite a bit in such a small system. It will not air back up on it's own, you need to do that. So if you notice a loss, you need to physically get it to pump back up again. If you are losing air overnight, there is a small leak,,,,, very small. Most likely in the valves that control the airflow. -
Heyyy,, PB&J - CONGRATULATIONS to you and Mrs. PB&J!!
Marcarl replied to cowpuc's topic in Watering Hole
Congrats you two,, and may you find many blessings together as you continue to become married. -
Ya sure,,,,,, Why me then??? Ordered a bubble envelope from JMCorp with a small cord packed inside on March 12. It must have grabbed a motel in LA for it stayed there for some time, then flew off to Vancouver where the weather must have been exceptional for it needed to rest there as well,,,, but hey, it departed there on the 18th and is expected here in S.Ontario for delivery on the 24th. Now if this was a large package, I could understand it,,, but an envelope????? USPS and Canada post. And they wonder why we don't ship with them???

1300 venture
Marcarl replied to bygingos's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
From the cable housing to the attaching point at the carb the cable should not contact anything. You shouldn't have any issue with the return cable, it's well out of the way but it should also run freely. It's the 'pull' cable that often gets routed over the nylon spacer (it's a spacer, not a roller). Also check to make sure that the bracket that supports the end of the cable sheath is held together properly. Often times the round parts where the cable sits in gets loose from the bracket itself, and if those two aren't solid it will also give you throttle problems. -
1300 venture
Marcarl replied to bygingos's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Make sure you have the throttle cable run in the right spot. As the cable enters the carb area it needs to pass a shaft with a nylon spacer on it. The cable goes on the inside of the shaft so that it does not ride on the spacer. The other issue I can think of is carb sync. You might want to check the sync. If one carb is out there is a problem. -
It's towards the front if I remember correctly,, be careful, it's not much, something like 6 ftlbs or so.

Slipping clutch
Marcarl replied to phonetrouble's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
So much for my input,,, can't see why I keep all that info in my head,, maybe I should clear it out to make room for more..... Thanks Carl, that would have been input exactly. -
Does anyone know anything about Diesel tractors
Marcarl replied to Dragonslayer's topic in Watering Hole
That about covers it,,, but if you use ether, remember that Ben has no money and can't replace anything on your engine. -
I've had some of the issues where you speak of as well. Can't really say what causes it, or which part is reacting with which part. What I found to be helpful was to change primers and then wait a full day before using any topcoat.
-
Well, what can I say,,, it will be a long time before I can forget you two,,,,, the trailer speaks to me daily!!!! So you've gone onto something new,,, sounds like you,,, somebody needs help and you jump in,,, with both feet for sure. God bless you in your endeavours, and if you need some help, you know we're still here, doing what we do best.

The green might be overpowering, so it needs to break up some,. A black stripe would compliment and divide but not do much for deferring the intensiveness of the green. Now to go with orange or brown would draw away from the green and be complimentary as well,,,,,,,,, I think,,, but then what do I know,,,, I like Cognac!
-
Where did you say we were to sign up???
-
Now the big question and whether or not you'll be allowed to drive it. Do the pedal move up\down when you push you push the memory seat button? I know how much you like to have the pedals close to 'home' and if you have them up too far you just know what Eileen is going to do to you!!!
-
Does it have memory seats and rear view mirrors that go down when you back up? Congrats Eileen,,,,, enjoy!

Happy birthday old boy,,,,,well I going to make a smart remark, but my clutch is slipping.

How to drill out pilot screw caps?
Marcarl replied to Chaharly's topic in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)
Once you get the caps off you might find a screw or 2 to be 'frozen', so be careful in turning them. If you strip the head off of one, then the real fun begins,,,,,, don't ask me how I know, but it can be fixed. -
You're going to get yourself a nervous breakdown. Know that this is going to happen and live with it. I really have no answer for you, for I have not investigated the kinds of people that are in question, but it happens all the time. Too much time on their hands, bored watching TV, no other relationships worth pursuing or enjoying????? many different reasons I suppose. Just try to loo past all the crap and realize it's a 'cost' of doing business.
