#438478 moespeeds (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 383 Sputters right off idle, more accel pump? 6 Months ago   Bike sputters/stumbles at low throttle settings, right off idle. Sounds like it's coming out the carb. Problem goes away when the choke is on. More accel pump or a larger intermediate jet?   Logged     Moe Colontonio Cherry Hill, NJ 2004 BD Chopper 2003 Roadstar Midnight 2000 Roadstar Beater Project Redneck 330 Mono Project   The administrator has disabled public write access. #438480 smokescreens (User) lifes better riding twins Platinum Boarder Posts: 5500 Re:Sputters right off idle, more accel pump? 6 Months ago   any idea of what your jetting is? any changes made between running good and now? if not then it could be a air leak   Logged     feel free to look thru my albums http://s1222.photobucket.com/albums/dd490/jasonwoody/ email me at jasonwoody1982@yahoo.com my 2005 midnight 1700   The administrator has disabled public write access. #438516 Erbman02 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3801 Re:Sputters right off idle, more accel pump? 6 Months ago   if it happens after the bike is fully warmed, then try turning out the pilot screw 1/4 turn. Idle and just off idle are the pilot circuit. If it's doing it when it's cold, and the temps are colder than where you are at, it's still the pilot ckt, but, you would still need to adjust the pilot screw out (richer) for the temp changes, then go back in next spring when the temps warm again. I would also suggest to look for any air leaks at the manifold to head joints. The vacuum is strongest at low throttle and if there is a leak, would suck more air in thru the leak at low throttle, creating a lean condition.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #438541 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride!

The tend to weather crack after a while and can cause bad vacuum leaks. Simple things first hard things last.   Logged     My Site Black Ice is Shiny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #438604 JEastonjr (User) Drive for the greater good.

Also ensure the accell pump is adj to begin giving a shot of fuel as soon as the throttle linkage/throttle plate in carb starts to move so motor doesn't spit/pop comming off idle due to a lean mixture cond. If giving it more or longer pump shot doesnt fix the problem or doesnt help at all adjust the accell pump adj back to where it was prior to adj it for more fuel shot as to not waste fuel thew motor doesnt need.
