well after a day of screwing with this thing ( 95 kat 750 ) i got it to run for about 10 seconds using a shot of gumout in each carb ( airbox off , # 4 carb vacuum line plugged ) . i even revved it before it died . i was happy . what i don't understand is why it won't stay running . the damm fuel hoses are not oem so they look like a crazy straw so it's probably having a hard time getting fuel . but when i open the drain screws on the bowls fuel comes out . WTF! i removed the plugs and there is just a hint of oil on them from when i let a litttle in the chambers so as to lubricate the cylinder walls . i cleaned them up . i checked spark and i have that although it's kinda weak so i threw that batt on the charger till i got 12.9 volts . everytime it just wants to start but it won't . i even took the carb float bowls off to check and make sure everything looks good and it does . floats move perfectly and height is ok . could a little oil screw this up this bad ? when i go up there wednesday i'll bring the correct hoses , ether and some compressed air to re clean the carbs and blow some air down the sparg plug holes . all cables are new ( thanks cyber ! ) and work perfectly . my guess is the fuel hoses and that little bit of oil down there which should be gone with all the attempted starts . but i would like your advice and opinions . p.s. the hoses from home depot suck . i 'm going with the oem ones .
