andy m Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 Hi, I purchased a Seeley 200 a while back, it has not been used much in its life, its virtually mint and still on std tyres. It is one of the last ones made. Basically it runs rich on tickover but as soon as you open the throttle up its fine. I have a Wes pipe fitted and the motor runs like a watch even even though its running rich. It has still got a D8EA plug fitted which are a lot better than the resistor plugs sold today. My mate has a Seeley and his seems to run rich also, is it a common fault as I see the airbox rubber seems a bit restricted. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zisko62 Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 hi there, take a look at the carb, may be the pilot jet is dirty or too small cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyrothers Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 The pilot jet hole in the carb body that feeds the main venturi is easily blocked and does affect the bikes running dramatically on tick over - I've 'carefully' cleared mine in the past with a wire from a wire brush on both the 125 and the 200 honda's i have.
