Hi everybody, after 4 hours of removing carbs, oil cooler, ignition coils , camchain cover, i finally could check the valve timing, and it was a little out of specs. So i adjusted it, like some of you guys had advised me, and with the help of the pictures and the service manual, i managed to get the...

ok, thanks for the info, will check the cam timing, as soon as possible

i don't know how gpz1100 a2 cams look like, can anyone post a picture of them, so that i can see if mine are the right ones???? thx in advance

i will try again to set the camtiming, but i do not understand why this doesn't work, it worked well on my gpz1100b2 engine. And what i did not mention yet, when the engine is turning at idle, i can hear some ticking out of the camshaft cover. i've set all of the valves on the wide side, i mean, som...

no, i don"t, does this help to set the camtiming correctly?????

Yves, i use carbtune synchroniseren, but also tried old vacuum meters, and they won t work either

Thanks for all the advice, but until now, i ve learned nothing new.
I don t wanna be mister wise guy, as some mombers suggest, so i Will post here if there is any improvement

A bent valve??, i did the valve check with fuel in the combustion chambers, and there is no leak, and yes i did the cold compression check without carbs, so throttle more than wide open. i have put in the piston rings as mentioned in the instruction leaflet, so i really don't know what i can do more...

yes i've done a compression test, low compression on all cylinders, 70 psi on 1 and 4, 65 on 2 and 3. of course the test was done with a cold engine, and new pistons and rings. done a leak test to, but no extreme leaks, all valves close well i think, the only thing i can think of is a wrong camshaft...

Hi everybody, thx for letting me becoming a member of the forum first of all. I am currently restoring a kawasaki Z1000R1 , so with the gpz1100 unitrak engine in it. But man, i have troubles, on trying to synchronize the carbs, i do not have enough vacuum to make the gauges react, the engine backfir...
