As Gazza suggests, I suspect you may have a sticking float/valve. Tapping can sometimes free them. But you've probably tried that already. Good luck with the carb swap!

I happened to be reading an old thread of yours where you previously did a compression test on one of your 750s. After initially getting low readings due to a leaky o-ring seal, you ended up recording 148psi on both cylinders. Your recent readings of 115psi seem rather low in comparison. However, since the readings from both cylinders are the same then it probably throws no light on your current problem. Sorry that's not very helpful. A couple of other thoughts .... 1) It seems unlikely that it would only affect running at low revs but is it worth checking for a leaky diaphragm ? I only mention it because it seems to be one of the few remaining areas that you haven't either checked or replaced. 2) Is there any chance that this is a problem of fuel delivery TO the carbs .. eg a faulty fuel pump ? I can't rationalise why this might affect only one cylinder though. But if you have one of those temporary fuel "tanks" which you hang above the bike, you could try running the bike from this (ie eliminate the fuel pump from the system) and see whether it makes any difference. As said earlier, I can't see why it should but if you've already tested the most obvious areas then maybe its worth investigating the less likely ones. |
