You want a piece too????

It was a good comment when iwild doesnt know me Sodomy? I can supply the o-ring lube. For the record the GSX was sold under market value and is still knocking around town, probally with the same cracked head. But iwild its a black GSX if get offered one. I'll remember to inform of all faults next time I sell a bike, I consider myself told off!

Good advise on the fueltap KB is a great resourse for info. I wonder how much money has been spent chasing that fault. Compare a $1000 engine rebuild verses a 20cent piece of rubber.

Did you say that in your original post? No you didn't, you seemed so proud to take some poor buggers cash. As for calling me a tugger? Smell ya mother!

really....Old age has got the better of you again Grumps...

ps.. an old girlfriend of mine with the strongest london accent use to love abusing idjiots with the come back "Cock Sucker!" but she said it with such Venom added to the london accent it would rip you in half and leave you speechless.

Unfortunately for you it doesn't seem to have the same edge... i can picture you gasping for teh "clickity" Bottle between words with Rashika sat next to you shaking her head..which I'm sure has a purple rinse

Anyhows.. Cher Cher

If only you knew what they looked, if only you knew......

My metal capacity for visualiations is limited due to too much TV as a child; Other areas of my mental capacity are also limited however thats due to classay dwugs.

will hook into it in the w/e and will re comp test with oil aswell, too bloody cold in the garage theses days to bother after work.

Remember reading somewhere that the highest and lowest pressure reading should be within 10% of each other. The Kat is just outside of that. All the best with your fault finding.

Thanks to those that have P/Med to ask how the Kat is doing

Now managed to get out to the garage today and after another spin into town for a rear tyre... they got the wrong tyre in again, but I did sort the rear brakes out.
Now when I got home I figered lets do the comp test again with oil... 1st did a dry test and FUK ME #2 was reading higher than previously... but #3 was down WTF... anyway heres the results
168
159
132
158
#3 was down 30 odd psi from last w/e whats that about?
anyway 5ml of oil down the hole and it came up to 180

And at this point the batt went dead so that roots that idea... so I blocked the diaphram hose off and turned it to prim.
went for a blast gave the bitch arseholes and have not as yet checked the plugs, I'll do that in the morning and re try the comp test.

The blast I just did on the Kat went like this, if I open the taps up slow it pulls through the revs ok... but if I dump the taps open it puls well at low revs then between 5.5-6.5 it goes dead and misses a bit... hits 7k and hauls arse like nothing touches 8.5 k and the tacho goes directly to the red (clutch slip maybe?)

so apart from the 5-6 dead zone it is very smooth... but... aint 80's brakes crap

Only real men can haul early 80s 4s around ah? Seriously though, sounds like you are enjoying the tinkering .

So have you replaced the air filter yet? Its been sitting for 5 years, have you fitted an inline fuel filter? Could be a lot of crap floating around (and not all of it is in this thread, ya know )
