Separate names with a comma.
Rare inline-four screamer, 18500 rpm redline. Has sat outside for over 10 years, and needs everything - tires, battery, carbs cleaned, tank...
If you can find a suitable bit of tubing (I think it's brass, not copper), you can simply glue it in place - JB Weld, or the like.
Yeah, you definitely killed the bearing. Once you get the engine apart, you can inspect the conrod and crank pin, but I'd wager there's gonna be...
The oil warning lamp is for oil LEVEL, not pressure. The lamp comes on when the starter button is pressed as a function check - it always sucks...
Yes, that's what the sizzle test is for, and yes, you should see the EXUP positioning as you rev the engine up and down.
Start the engine, let it idle for a few minutes until it's done with the choke, then flick / spray some water on the headers. Does one pipe sizzle...
Glad you've got it running! You still need to check your EXUP - you should not have such a noticeable step in power at 10k. There are lots of...

Your comments about no power below 10k says your EXUP is jammed in the high position.
If you have no tank screens, then you have no Reserve. Whether the petcock is set to Main or Reserve, you'll drain the tank dry.
Have you cleaned the tank? The outlet screen? The fuel filter? The carbs? You have a fuel starvation problem - clean out the crap that's blocking...

Sounds like someone's done a hack job on your harness. Where does each wire go to?
Hi, Rhys. Welcome to the addiction! Before you get into any engine work, pull the whole fuel system, from tank to carbs, and give everything a...
2550 Thai Baht, or about A$85.
2mm base spacer and slotted cam sprockets.
This guy just lied to your face. Either he took them, or his buddy did, or he just plain lost them and doesn't want to pay to replace the plugs.
I don't see why they would be. Take them out and look at them.
