I just got my first road bike. Its a 1994 honda cbr600f2. I bought it off soundman and apparently it was running when it was parked but has been parked for a while. So I drained all the fuel checked the oil bleh bleh bleh, and put her back together. I am having trouble getting this thing running now. I pulled the gas tank again, pulled off all the intake junk and sprayed the carbs with carb cleaner. put back together, nothing. found I put the vac line in the wrong place, switched it and now fuel was pumping from the tank, but no matter how much I throttled it, I never saw fuel drip from the bottom. so I am thinking that the the needle pin or whatever its called may be gunked up. I can get it to start if I plug the vac hose and the fuel hose when the tank and air filter is off (only if they are both plugged, maybe coincidence??)
is it a carb adjustment? I can keep it going with some brake parts cleaner, no filter, a little gas poured in the carb and plugging the hoses, but as soon as I let off full throttle, it will die immediately. exhaust will blow a small amount of black smoke, but I dont have a muffler on it right now...
