Messed around last night with the carbs Have them all cleaned and all new gaskets and o-rings and such. There 28mm mikunis with the accelerator pump, quite interesting.
Set up to test the float needle and seats and set the float heights.
They were way off where the manual suggested, and I don't know what jets are in them they are not marked except the pilot which is mikuni. I am having a hard time finding out what was stock jets and needle. Looks like Kawasaki had a lot of different set ups for different kz's. It is a bit dizzying.
I know the bike ran well before the tranny blew so I think I will leave them as they are. I am 90% positive it was a Dynojet kit done in the late 80's when he switched to the Mac Tri-Y exhaust system.
Set each carb fuel level to exactly 3mm, manual says 2-4mm. I let each sit for 10, min or so and the fuel hight didn't change, then I went back and tested each carb again to be sure.
Hope it runs good when I get them back on, such a HUGE pain to take them on and off the bike, but it is what it is!
