  1. Bike is now in the local motorbike Guru's shed, therefore i'm expecting a miracle to happen within two days, i guess he will no doubt try all that has been suggested on here over the past few weeks, including slaving in a new/different carb. Can't really afford a brand new carb but i guess any make that is about the same as a keihin pe24 will do the job won't it??? what do you think do you have to replace like for like ??
  2. Fuel flows with cap on or off, as for the spring clip i will check this week and let you know, Thanks for your suggestions...jimm
  3. Fuel flow is fine with cap both on and of. As for this spring clip job i shall check that this week and let you all know how it goes it a good call lets hope its that, if its not does anybody want to buy a Honda?? its a excellent runner (honest)..jimm
  4. Yes to fuel getting through, iv'e emptied the tank and flushed out with fresh fuel, done all the wiring checks stated in the manual, primary and secondary coil pulse generator and generator coils. Plug is always wet, yes to still a good spark even when it won't fire..............thanks for your ideas keep them coming..jimm
  5. yes to plug being wet, as for spraying water /fuel between carb and motor i can't do this because it does not run for long enough 3-4 seconds currently. Thanks for the reply
  6. Yes and the needle blocks fuel when throttle is shut.......boooooo
  7. I checked the float valve is doing its job and unfortunatley (for me ) it is, it cuts of the fuel supply when the float is at 19mm. This is the correct height from the manual. At a loss as to what to do next now has anyone else got any suggestions.........jimm
  8. This sounds like a good diagnosis, just to clarify when you say "make sure the the needle seat is blocking fuel when the chamber is full" you are talking about the float bowl/chamber being full and not the engine chamber, your diagnosis seems to make sense as we all know a flooded crank case/engine chamber will not help in the starting of the motor.I will do what you have suggested some time this week and post the results on here.....again Thanks for everyones responses..jim
  9. I don't think the coil has time to get hot as it only runs for a few seconds at a time, i did all the electrical resistance checks on the coil last night and all came up good. The cdi resistance checks are a little more tricky as it says in the manual to use a certain type of tester a SANWA T/N 07411-0020000 or a KOWA DIGITAL TASTER T/N 07411-0020000. I only have an AVO 8 or pocket sized multimeter (modern)i wonder if you really neeed the ones they say as modern technology has come on leaps and bounds since the 1980's.
  10. Thanks for your speedy reply, I shall try another plug tonight, as for the piston in the right way around, yes it is cut out facing towards the carb (rearwards) i did have this thought myself but quickly discounted it. Any other suggestions appreciated. I Was thinking of trying a new cdi unit for a bigger spark, i was thinking as more fuel goes in the motor could this extinguish the spark if too much fuel present...........just a thought what does anyone think.....as a last ditch effort can anyone suggest a decent motorcycle engineer in lincolnshire....not a dealer though. cheers jimm
  11. Hi all honda experts, I have a TLM 200 which i have just done a full engine rebuild on, main bearings main seals ect. It runs (somtimes)on a keihin pe26 and will currently not tick over for more than a few seconds and any aplication of throttle just kills the motor, the carb is all clean with fresh fuel at 50:1 the spark plug is a new ngk and has a visible spark. The confusing bit is it will start easily a few times and then cut out but after about the 5 or 6th go it will then not start again for the rest of the day This is rather disapointing after its been totally re-built at some cost and lots of time, i just want to use the thing now, any suggestions anybody...............
  12. I got one to, just done main bearings and all the good stuff, parts can be tricky to come by but main bearings and crank seals are the same as on a MTX 200RW, and many other parts I'm sure go to cmsnl.com for micro fiche pictures and to buy spares......jimm
