FZS600 Fazer / Mixture screw leaking

« on: 17 June 2013, 06:24:08 am »

Some of you may remember my last thread about a petrol smell. Well today I found that it was still there so I decided to put my finger under each mixture screw hole. I found that cylinder 2 was weepin petrol. This was also the cylinder that was low on vacuum when I balanced my carbs. The thread seems fine as the screw turns in and out easy. Has anyone else had this problem? Could it just be an o-ring? I can't understand why it would leek though.

FZS600 Fazer / Mixture Screw Adjustment

« on: 01 June 2013, 08:37:10 pm »

Hello All,
Do you adjust your settings by the manual ie 2.5 turns? My mate says his screws are all at different settings as the bike seems to sound better? I am nt sure about that. Shall I stick to what the manual says?

FZS600 Fazer / Fazer 600 Carb Sync - Problem

« on: 24 May 2013, 10:39:21 pm »

Hello everyone. I tried to balance my carbs today on my 2003 faxer. Its done 6000miles now. I adjusted carbs 1-4 but just couldn't adjust cylinder 2. The guage is lower than the rest. I tried another guage on it just incase the guage was faulty but its not and I got the same reading. I have also checked the carb rubbers. They are like new.. I am at a loss. Please help me!!
