Crm running rough !!!!
Crm running rough !!!!
Hi There all .
My Crm starts fine pulls ok ,but when it gets to a certain rev range it stutters ,sounds as if it is hitting a rev limiter ,it wil sometimes ride through and rev out ,or if i dip the clutch this seems to help nudge it past this rough bit .The bike has been standing for a while ,so i dont know if this has anything to do with it ,to me it feels like ignition breakdown ,but i am open for suggestions ??? i did notice that the throttle on the carb seems to move quite a bit later than the oil pump cable ,so dunno if its running rich ,doesnt seem overly smokey . I had the plug out ,it looked ok ,had the gen cover off ,all looked ok ,I am a bit stuck ,I dont know what size jets are in the carbs.its a mk 2 by the way .Any help /ideas would be appreceiated .Cheers.
