    86r throttle cable ?

    Can the cable stretch over time. My bike wont idle. But if I hold the throttle it a 1/4 inch it idles fine. Is there away to test if it has stretched.

    Thanks Jim

    The Black Knob on your Carb is the Idle adjuster. '86 Keihin stock Carb.

    Try the Search button or Jetting 101, Lot's of great information.

    They can stretch, but that is not going to change the way it idles

    Adjust it out in the cable. You aren't opening up WOT either. Adjust it down till the idle on the carb has your idle,but watching the slide form the back,it opens with the thumb. They do stretch,not usually that much. If you just rebuilt the barb,,is the cable seated down in the throttle cap? Doesn't sound it. Recheck your work!
    Please help those who cannot help themselves.

    ALWAYS buying Museum quality machines,3 and 4 wheels. And any and ALL ,NOS parts,EVERY brand.

    I am turning my PM's Off,my Email is billsracing@hotmail.com,put 3WW in the subject. Thanx!
