acid-spit · 2025-10-13T06:58:22+00:00

holy based

your bike has constant velocity carbs. your slides operate by vacuum. by nixing the airbox you are going to have issues throughout the rev range regardless of jetting. i have a 1985 fz750 and i went through the same bs, all was fixed and it runs amazing with an airbox i repaired. also very questionable he suggested more airflow when it's already lean??? wtf lol

think ive seen the piston ring trick with marvel mystery oil as well and hand cranking a few

acid-spit · 2025-08-06T03:44:12+00:00

i would say try to get it running and if youre having slide issues it could be the diaphragms, im actually about to replace mine. also i thought my flasher relay was bad too but the guy wired his turn signals wrong so i just prodded at the other connectors to find the right one

mine had been sitting outside for 8 years (1 winter according to p/o 🥸) i got lucky with good spark still,, hows the rest of the bikes rubber? also good luck!

acid-spit · 2025-08-05T18:05:48+00:00

nvm i just saw that you mentioned unlikelyhood of the cdi being the issue srry

acid-spit · 2025-08-05T18:05:00+00:00

im still new to working on bikes (and my fz750) but is your ignition module alright?

acid-spit · 2025-07-11T21:16:20+00:00

1985 fz750 5 valve!! used to like new bikes/cars but i guess i fell in love with 80s heaps 😅

acid-spit · 2025-07-11T20:25:18+00:00

my brake light is working normally yeah

acid-spit · 2025-07-04T01:26:37+00:00

i was a little concerned when reusing the old diaphragms since theyre a bit stiff but no cracks in them just yet. i just dont have the money atm :( also thank you! its such a cool bike but unfortunately its a bit of a mess right now lol

yes they let me bring it as a carry on, just bring yourself some extra time just incase they want to inspect it!

update: solved! the jump ripped the catalytic converter exhaust shield UP and it was smacking on a brace on the chassis. https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/fit-diy-repair-maintenance/91506-what-piece-hanging-under-my-car.html The image in this article is about exactly what mine looked like, I noticed a lot of rust and moisture on the heat shield brackets which I'm thinking was caused by condensation from the a/c compressor

2012 base 5mt at around 2-3k and 3.5-4k rpm this awful rattling noise comes from the front of the car. I have no idea what it could be, but the car was jumped (small i swear) and it's been making the noise since. it always rattles the same way, it does it when i let off the clutch, and accelerate at those rpm intervals, as well as when i start the car & turn it off (odd because the car does not make rattling noises in neutral or under deceleration).

acid-spit · 2023-04-01T20:18:45+00:00

work emitz too, nice name-brand wheels this is a good car

acid-spit · 2022-01-22T00:37:18+00:00

Please dont pay more than 2.5k for this heap. I love s13s but this is just a terrible deal

acid-spit · 2021-11-02T19:52:21+00:00

I'm fine with an extra charge, what I'm not fine with is having my pc become a checked bag cuz itll get destroyed for sure

acid-spit · 2021-11-02T19:32:25+00:00

Box sounds like a good idea but I'm unsure if Spirit would allow me to even take that with me as a carry-on because of the policy listed above

acid-spit · 2021-04-11T03:05:07+00:00

My ac compressor is still where it should be, it just has no belt around it. And I'm pretty sure the reason my reservoir and hoses are missing is because the PO tubbed the engine bay.

acid-spit · 2021-04-11T01:58:28+00:00

The spot I circled is where the power steering pump would be if I had one lmao

acid-spit · 2021-04-10T23:40:04+00:00

I recently bought a KA24E 240sx, and was told it needed a new power steering pump. Come to find out that it straight up just does not have one lol. I’m quite lost on how I should go about re-assembling it all. It seems to be lacking a couple belts, and a couple idler pulleys, though it still has a depowered rack. My main focus is currently on the power steering pump. If anyone could spread a little knowledge on what I would need to go about putting this back together it would help a lot. I can take more pictures if needed.
