  1. Jips cleaned my carbs yesterday, but engine runs still the same. Have the feeling that cilinders 3 & 4 are not working, since (with no exhausts) the air out of the exhaust is cold. So if I count it all together: checked ignition timing/checked camshaft timing/measured pickup coils/measured ignition coils/ cleaned carbs... The only thing that is left would be the TCI I guess? grtz, D
  2. Jips today I checked the cams, and they are fine. Also the valve lash is within tolerance. Tomorrow I will clean the carbs, since I removed them anyway to check the cams. There was something today that I found strange thow: The colors of the wires from the pickup coils are just the opposite of the colors of the wires in the cables that goes to the TCI (I mean at the connector halfway between pickup coils and tci). Is this normal? orange and gray are switched, and white/red and white/green also. Could that explain why I needed to switch the connectors at the ignition coils? grtz, D
  3. Jips I didn't know that there was a feedback from the cams to the ignition. I'll check it tomorrow. Hope till then I find another startermotor too, cause I burned it today while checking the ignition again with the strobo. grtz, D
  4. Jips Had some time this afternoon, and removed the flywheel. Woodruff key in place, nothing strange to see inside. any idea what else could be wrong? grtz, D
  5. Jips I guess it's the same then.. Monday I'll check the key. I already checked the ignition with the timing light, that's how i figured out to swithc the wires, and the checking of the TDC was equal to the conclusions with the timing light. grtz, D
  6. Jips seems like I hve the same problem..... Same symptoms, only whe I switch the ignition of 1 & 3, and 3 & 4, it starts, but doesn't run nicely. When you twist the throttle, it shoots & bangs, and die... Had you the same symptoms? grtz, D
  7. Jips I narrowed the problem down to the TCI. All the resistances of the ignition coils, and the ignition pickup coils are within tolerance. Can the TCI been repared, or do I have to search for another one? grtz, D
  8. Jips checked all connection today, all are clean. Removed the TCI, it was a 26H, so with the vacuumconnection under the throttle plates, it sure cannot run well. Opened it, it had no (!) moisture in it, completely dry. Is it possible that the cause of the problems is just the wrong TCI? Is ther anyone who actually switched a 26H TCI on a later than 83 bike, or just 'should' it work..... I don't know it anymore....... Think I'm going to sleep...., it's allready past midnight here grtz, D:headache::headache:
  9. Jips Today I checked the ignition with the strobo light, and it seems that the first cilinder sparked at the TDC of cilinder 2 and vice versa. I switched the coils, and also coils 3 and 4, and it stayed idling. It idles very smooth, and what I found very quiet. (for not having installed the exhaust pipes I mean) When I gave a little turn at the throttle, it stopped. With or without the vacuum connection, makes no difference. If the engine gets hot, it is possible to keep it running, but at the same RPM, and with a lot of banging. Couldn't get any further. Also found it strange that the tacho drops when you twist the throttle. The engine number starts with 47G, so I don't know if its a 1300. grtz, D
  10. Jips It seems I have the later carbs, with no hole on the carbs. I haven't found the time to check what TCI I have, but I will do soon. The engine has no 1300 clutch and side panels(I think, cause under YAMAHA there's only an empty rectangle), but can I see if the engine itself is a 1300? grtz, D
  11. Jips I don't know how much rpm the engine does when you are starting. Not much I guess, probably couple of 100RPM. The engine doesn't fire up so.... The engine seems to be one later than 83, so it is younger than the bike itself. The vacuum is taken under the throttle plates, and there is no port above them. So back to the start. I mailed the PO to ask him about the other engine where the TCI is from. It should be an 87 he said, so it should be the same TCI, but I wan't to be sure. I had the feeling that it ignited much to soon, sometimes even with the intake valves still open. (Will try to check it next time with a strobo light) There was more smoke from the carbs, than from the exhaust. Could the ignition that much wrong? The colors from the wires at the ignition coils is like it should be. All the plugs have a spark too Is this possible? :think: grtz, D
  12. Jips my question was actually: Could the effect of the misconnected vacuum line be that big? grtz, D
  13. I Believe I have a 83 VR with a 87 TCI. The PO says he switsched the TCI, because the 83TCI looks burned. The bike won's fire up, en keeps backfiring throught the carbs, like the ignition would be completely wrong. With the throttle wide open, it seems like the starter can turn it with less effort. I haven't had the time to switch the vacumm line from the tci under the throttle plates, but I wonder.... Could the problem only been caused by this? grtz, D
