CaMpylobacter Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 smoke is win it'll subside after a good run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver Posted January 27, 2010 Author Share Posted January 27, 2010 yeh smoke has nearly stopped now. question, what stops a flasher unit from ticking back off? like the indicators will come on, but stay on and not flash... one bulb is missing so would that be an issue?

CaMpylobacter Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 yuh that'll do it. until you get a battery try to refrain from using any lights. 6v bulbs are sometimes a bit difficult to find in scooter sizes. it'll always smoke a bit too. when it doesn't then that's when you've got problems.

bubblegoose Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 clean that zorst out brew will undoubably be cloged to fuck and will be holding your turbo from spooling block on end off and fill with turps for a few hours epty it then burn it dry, bonfire or gas torch style, takes time but worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beaver Posted February 2, 2010 Author Share Posted February 2, 2010 pulled the head apart today and cleaned out the exhaust port. goes heaps harder, can do a touch over 40 on the flats and can touch 50 down a slight hill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tortron Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 normaly i would suggest a splash of meths in the fuel (dunno if itl fuck witht he 2 stroke oil tho) for a decoke also shave down the head for max go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKtrips Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 I have heard of getting oxyacetylene torch fired up into the tailpipe and getting a good glow going inside - then turn off the acetylene and run pure oxy into the exhaust - burns out all the oil residue/blockage... check with knowledgable 2 stroke feind before trying..

KKtrips Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/archive/index.php/t-1872.html Also found this One problem with two stroke exhausts is that they can get plugged up with carbon from the oil used to lubricate the engine. The bike will start easily but just will not rev up. This is especially true of quite exhausts. If the exhaust has removable baffles or is fiberglass packed, you can easily clean them and replace the fiberglass packing. If the baffles are not removable it is much harder to clean them. Many stock two stroke exhausts have non removable baffles or have only one or two baffles that are removable. The different baffles collect the unburned carbon and plug up but you can't easily get to them. There are several cures. Non of which are easy or cheap. A new exhaust. This the most expensive and sure fire way to cure the problem. Burn the carbon out of the exhaust. This works quite well. The problem is that you need an oxy-acetylene torch set up and considerable skill in burning it out. You must heat the pipe hot enough to get the carbon burning but not so hot that you melt the steel of the pipe and internal pipe baffles. Once the carbon starts to burn you must make sure enough oxygen gets blown through the pipe to keep the carbon burning until it is all burned out. Sometimes you can actually see the progression of the burn, as a red hot band around the body of the muffler, as it moves from one end of the pipe to the other. If the carbon goes out it is quite hard to get it burning again. This is tricky but works well if you can do it. There is a big risk of melting the internal baffling. Melt a few baffles out and the pipe will run very loud. Do this outside. It produces smoke like a smoke bomb. Cut the exhaust pipe open on the back side and then burn out the carbon. Then weld the pipe back together. Again, do it outside. Use caustic soda to dissolve the carbon. Simply fill the pipe with a solution of caustic soda and water. The mixture should be about three pounds of caustic soda mixed with one gallon of water. This is not a real good option because the caustic soda is, well, caustic and dangerous to use. I DO NOT recommend this method. A mixture of soap that dissolves the carbon. There are several companies that sell special soap for this. I have tried some of their samples and I thought they just did not work. I filled up one plugged exhaust pipe with their soap mixture and left it for about 30 hours and nothing happened. Maybe I didn't give it enough time. At least it's harmless to use! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truenotch Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Mine does more than 50. Good info on the exhaust blockage there KK. Building a new one seems to be the best way to combat it. Mine uses a 1-1/4" Coby with a stinger in the end, works mint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver Posted February 3, 2010 Author Share Posted February 3, 2010 hmm looks like ive got a bit more work to do then. the difference it made cleaned out the exhaust port was massive, so hopefully cleaning out the exhaust will help also. painted whitewalls on today, chuck up pics in a sec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver Posted February 3, 2010 Author Share Posted February 3, 2010 whitewalls add on about 20km/h so thats mint. also added sweet mudflap from the Hunterville shop (another reason to go to wagnats) was like original 70's NOS etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tortron Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 does the mudflap say Suzuki in raised letters? If so paint them white Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
