Re: Z900 A4 fuel leak any ideas please?
I doubt you've broken a ring and think your issues are either timing or carb settings or both. Your comp tests are probably a red herring which are mainly down to sealing issues. Static time it and set the airscrews at 1 & half turns out from seated and you'll no be too far out. Report back afte...

Re: Z900 A4 fuel leak any ideas please?
It depends where the ring has broken (if it has). If it's broken into 2 half's then it'll do little damage to the bore as it wouldnt be able to twist in the bore that much. If it's broken say 10 - 15 mm from the gap the broken piece would have more room to twist and would score the bore badly if tha...

Re: Z900 A4 fuel leak any ideas please?
OK, firstly the inductive strobe pick up. If it's on in the wrong direction for that ht lead you'll get an intermitant signal / flash. The airscrews are on the side if the carb. Think of it as a tube which is partially blocked by the screw. Opening (turning a/c) reduces the blockage and allows more ...

Re: Z900 A4 fuel leak any ideas please?
This explains it clearly Al. Follow the arrow directions although in our case it would be plug 1 & 4 and 2 & 3. I've had this conversation with Graham previously.

Re: Speedo/Tacho seal Z900A4
Just cut a new one from an old inner tube. If you don't have one your local tyre fitters will have plenty in the rubbish bin.

r3sc, one proviso, Graham has the replacements that have a adjuster for each points set aswell as adjusting thing the back plate. Many repop plates don't have the adjusters on each set of points.

Re: Z900 A4 fuel leak any ideas please?
Hmmmm, cylinder 1 & 3 looks a little suspicious. 1 being lowish with no oil and 3 having a big increase with oil. Cylinders 1 & 4 are normally fairly equal as are cylinders 2 & 3. Cylinders 2 & 3 are normally a little lower than 1 & 4 as they are in the middle and get less coolin...

Re: Z900 A4 fuel leak any ideas please?
Graham, take two reading per cylinder. One cold, throttle fully open, no plugs, cranks the starter until reading stops increasing. Second same as first but with a few ml of oil squirted into the cylinder. A significant increase will show a rings/bore issue. No significant increase but low reading sh...

Re: Ignition loss
Well as every fuse you've put in has blown immediately the feed to the coils wouldn't be live so they should be fine.
Did it blow the fuse without turning on the ignition or did it blow as soon as you did?

Re: 73 asymmetric floats
How can they have gone heavy? unless they have been punctured?
Would a bit of heat to dry them out and dip in por15 not sort them out?
Correct part number 16031-024? Z fever Germany.

Re: Ignition loss
Sounds like the relay shorted directly to earth which blew the fuse. That probably means the connectors inside the relay will likely have fused in the closed position. If that's the case once the fuse was replaced, if it didn't blow again immediately, the battery might have already fried. Take a spa...
