blaaack plugs!

[sidecarguy]

my jawa 350 640 '95 was runing fine

with the sidecar until a couple of days ago.

if just started to bog down

and now it fouls op plugs in like 5 blocks?

i had to use like 4 paris of plugs just to get home!!

where should i start trouble shooting

gas flooding or electrical?

[niterider]

I think it is flooding.

hmm i just took the carb apart

and rechecked everything since i just

took it apart last week and we'll see how it goes.

there is a little pipe that goes in some passages

and comes out the other side which i suspect is blocked.

any tips on hoe to clear it? i tried poking but since its

all curvy and stuff i cant really clean it!!

I always take my carbs apart, remove anything rubber and plastic and put her in a chemical dip overnight. Makes them shiny as new and dissolves most gunk. Then I spray the leftover dip off with carb cleaner, blow some compressed air through the passages and put back together. Takes a bit of time but it's solved every carb problem I've ever had.

whatkindofchemicaldip?

im afraid if i leave them overnight in acid it'll eat them away!

ok ya, to be on safe side i'll take it off again and do it!

[storysunfolding]

It won't hurt the metal but it will eat rubber. I've been told that plastic is ok, but I never tested it myself and don't plan to.

As for the dip, just get whatever they have at the autoparts store near you. It's all the same thing.

[sidecarguy]

which is?

Just ask for carb cleaner it should be in a bucket that has a small tray in it to put the parts in while soaking. The cleaner is reusable.
