Hi, I'm new here......
In preperation for the upcoming season I drug my sled into the garage, where she let me know she was still sleepy. A carb cleaning (I set the air mixture screws to 1.5 turns) / synched, and powervalve cleaning later , she sounded angry again (just the way I like her!). Idle was perfect, and half pull starting.
Upon further inspection, the hyfax, and 3 Maxx wheels were cooked. Luckily I had spares in stock. Everything was stuck, and took a real beating to get them off!! After reassembly I spun the track to loosen it up, and set the tension at 16 lbs. @ 1.25". While I was at it I adjusted the limiter strap to 42mm.
The problem I can't overcome is bleeding the air out of the water manifold. I bled the screw under the seat no problem.
My questions are:
Are 1.5 turns on thr air screws too much? 1.125 is stock.
Do I have my track set too tight?
Is 42mm on the limiter strap too loose?
How do I get the to bleed out of the water manifold?
Thanks in advance for any help. I need to get this thing fixed, as I'm dropping her off this weekend at my Hougton Lake house for the season.
