  1. Sorry. A poor description on my part. After a couple of blips of the throttle the engine runs at high rpm with the throttle closed. It seems to be getting air from somewhere. I did swap carbs, but not the slides. I will give it a try with the complete carb tomorrow. Thanks, Tripp
  2. Replaced the o ring on the clutch side. There was not an o ring on the magneto side, just 2 seals and a paper gasket. Not sure if all models had o rings. To complicate matters the cases are not original to the bike. They are alpina cases. I was told the originals were damaged. The oil on the clutch side was being pushed out of the vent hole in the filler plug. This stopped after replacing the seals. I do have the spigot type intake. It has been resealed along with a new intake gasket. Carb cleaner has been sprayed around this area when running to no avail. I have also sprayed it behind the stator with the side cover off, base of head, and along the case seams. I am leaning toward splitting the cases and starting from scratch. Tripp
  3. Hello, I am new member from Appling, Georgia. USA. I have been riding off-road my whole life, at age 47 , the trials bug has bitten. I now own two sherpa t 350 model 92s' and have competed in three events. My first sherpa had engine trouble when I bought it. The second one has been flawless. It is the first one I need help with. The engine ran very poorly when I purchased it. Timing was off and it was pushing oil out of the clutch side. I replaced crank seals, points, condenser, timing chain tensioner, and re jetted the mikuni 28. It ran well, but wanted to rev, after it warmed up. I have since done a top end and still have the revving problem. I have sprayed carb cleaner all over trying to find the culprit. Have tried another carb too. Plug is a good brown color. Could it be burning transmission oil? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you, Tripp
  4. Hello. New to trials at age 47. Have been riding off road all of my life. Attended a vintage event in Aonia, Georgia last year and got bitten by the trials bug. Soon after attending that event I purchased 2 model 92 sherpa ts. I have competed in three events so far and love it. Looking forward to learning my way around this site. Tripp
