I just got the shee put back together after pipe, carb, peg and nerf setup change. I bought the carbs used off ebay and are keihin pwk's, I'm guessing 30's that have been bored to 32's. When I start it it redlines, and I have to kill it within a few seconds. I tryed it with choke on and off and its the same thing. It might have been just a hair worse with the choke off or it might have been in my head. I am unfimiliar with these types of carbs, so it may be a simple solution, I just dont know how to fix it. What is the probem?? Thanks.

 

sounds like your slides are stuck wide open. or you may have possibly put slides in wrong. check them out.

 

look into the carbs and see if the slides are partially open. On my Pj34s you twist the choke to adjust idle.

 

Jakal, which direction turns down the idle?

 

I CAN ALMOST GUARANTEE ITS YOUR PARKING BRAKE CABLE (the electric wire that comes out of your brake lever). CUT IT! THATS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO MINE. I cut my PB wire and it idled like it should. Give it a try, i guarantee thats it, if not, tell me.

 

Im pretty sure screwing them in lowers the idle. There is some stock setting but I cant remember it. Its prolly on the keihin page though, or run a search on a search engine for PWK33 idle setting.

 

I wouldnt try messing with the carb until after you cut the PB wire. It was so simple and i was looking on ebay for CDIs because thats what the mechanic told me, but he was wrong.

 

All the electrical stuff has been removed. I have no parking brake, killswitch, lightswitch, or anything that goes along with it. I wish it was a simple as turning the choke but I dont think it is on pwk's.

 

I took it all back apart today and found one of my needles moves up and down about an 1/8 inch when I try and move it. Could this be whats making it rev? Could it have anything to do with being too lean or having air leaks? I ordered a new throttle cable too.
