Did you remove the pilot screws? Did you blow air through every hole you could 
find? What do the diaphrams look like?

that one cylinder doesn’t need choke, you just have to experiment in starting

it took a bit of tweaking.

I let it run longer - this is the first time I am starting after a full and

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Carbs started leaking out of the


Did you install the washers? That will add to the problem. You might try just 
the washers with the stock jets. That might be best. If you had 4 into 1 
exhaust both might be great.

The smell of gas might be that # 1 not firing and gas going right through.
Don’t know about leaning out the pilot screws or the consequences of

 Hey - so i got the carbs off (actually I took off the rubber boots from
 the air filter box) and the rest was super easy.
 Here is the state of the carbs as they are - i have not cleaned
 anything yet - seems very clean.
 The rubber gaskets are a gonner thought - all plasticky and tough. I
 have changed the O-rings and the gaskets on the bowls.
 Keeping my fingers crossed as I am putting it back together.
 Let me know (looking at the pics) if there still a need to soak
 anything in the carb cleaner.
 Thanks to all - I'll keep you posted on the progress.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Carbs started leaking out of the blue.

Thanks for that - will persevere...
What about the fact that I have a bluish smoke and a strong smell of gasoline 
coming out of the pipes? Not sure if I had mentioned, but I had installed 
pancake air pods and rejetted the carbs accordingly. While the pilot screws are 
at the factory recommended 2 5/8 out. Should I lean them out more?

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Carbs started leaking out of the blue.

2019-03-17 Thread Graham Rogers

One carb, you will not be able to adjust, # 3 in your case I think, the one
that has the vacuum tube. So that is the one you synch the other three to,
whatever it reads. The trick is getting it running fairly well at idle to
get a true reading.
Yes let it run longer to get #1 running. We’ve all been through what you’re
going through, so persist. You can’t synch the carbs with choke open to
full unless that means choke ‘off’.
Check that #1 spark plug, is it wet, black with carbon, white? That will at
least tell you what’s going on. If it’s wet, dry it off and try again.
One minute with choke operation not long enough, did you try backing the
choke off and seeing if that cylinder fires. I’ve fooled around for hours
trying to get all cylinders running sometimes. Maybe that one cylinder
doesn’t need choke, you just have to experiment in starting procedure a
bit. The last Nighthawk I synced all cylinders ended up at 20  but it took
a bit of tweaking.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Carbs started leaking out of the blue.

2019-03-17 Thread Jenya Spektor

Few more inquiries about syncing. 
1. The manual said to have choke open to full - is that correct?
2. Where does the needle need to point on the sync gage dial when the carb 
pressure is correct?

In general (to my great frustration):
1. It’s weird but the damn carbs keep not working at a random order - today the 
number one is not working(the header is cold) while others are at 70* C after a 
minute of open choke operation. Should I let it run longer - this is the first 
time I am starting after a full and thorough clean.
2. Should I lean out the pilot screw more (right now is at the factory/manual 
setting) - the exhaust smells strongly of gasoline.
Thank you guys!

Hey friends!
So I have cleaned everything, installed them on the bike. All seem to be 
working (even thought #3 header pipe is not as hot as the others - measured it 
with the thermometer). Now on to syncing - and a quick question about that. I 
presume when inserting the brass adapters/extensions into the intake tubes, for 
the number 3 intake, the vacuum tube needs to be disconnected first? Or is 
there another place on there? Not sure if the way I worded my question makes 
sense but I hope it does. Will snap a few pics to illustrate later on. Thanks

And be sure you do the "woosh" test after reassemble. If you don't know what 
that is, stick your finger in carb in push piston up and let fall. Each one 
should make the same woosh sound and return at approximately the same speed. If 
any of them return faster than the others you don't have diaphragm in right or 
diaphragm is bad. If you missed any dirt, grit, etc, you will feel when you 
push up. Clean everything as clean as you can get it while you have carbs out. 
Wouldn’t want to pull them again because I missed something. My 2 cents. Darin

done so. Good luck

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Carbs started leaking out of the

Check spark by removing spark plug wire from # 1 plug and attaching any old
spark plug you have. Then ground the ‘old plug’ that’s attached to the plug
wire to the head, hit the starter button just enough to see spark. If 1 & 3
were working before, it’s unlikely that it’s spark.
Third time taking apart and cleaning again should do it!

1. How to check for spark?
2. Float seem to be right - 18mm
3. This is he second time putting them together- previously only #4 did not 
work (after I cleaned them initially). 
4. I only run the engine for 2 min or so before checking the temp.
5. There was a hissing (almost like a fast hiss) from one of them while they 
were working.
6. I did not connect the rubber air intake boots - the carbs have air filters 
on them.
I think I covered it all. Thanks again friends! J

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Carbs started leaking out of the

Check for spark on those two cylinders. If no spark, coil is next. If there
is spark, it’s back to the carbs. Any leaking gas from the carbs? Did you
such the carbs, bit hard if it’s only running on two I guess. In my
experience I have taken the carbs apart up to three times before getting a
Nighthawk running right on all four. Still  1 and 3, first check for spark.

It's also a safety for those who never lube the cables. In the occasional
cable fail you can still pull back the throttle. Some might say kill

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Carbs started leaking out of the

After giving the 2 cable throttle system a little more thought I understand why 
I need both. The spring you load as you accelerate pulls the throttle shut upon 
release. If no second cable the spring is trying to push the cable and throttle 
back to idle position. The way the spring mechanism is made is to pull the 
throttle back into idle position not be pushed back . Thus the slow return. 
Without your input I would still be thinking down the same path. Thank you all 
and I'll soon be sourcing cable

That would be awesome! Do you lube your cable regularly?

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Carbs started leaking out of the

Also did you guys follow the procedure for reassembling the set and bolt
tightening sequence? This helps alignment and reduces binding. It's in the
service manual if you have one. Good luck!

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Carbs started leaking out of the

Kinda picked up on that graham ; ) I checked the cable routing when I last
had carbs off. That what got me was how free the cable was , I only have
one, and checked the return spring.  A previous owner removed one cable and
center stand for some reason. Probably the same reason the front fender was
mounted backwards.

Check how you have your cables routed. If they move freely out of the bike
but stick when installed you might have them bound up somewhere.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Carbs started leaking out of the blue.

I bought the HF ultra sonic cleaner. Used Simple green. Took off bowls and 
removed jets. Also top half. Very easy. Did two carbs for 30 minutes the 
flipped it and then the other two. Let soak and repeated it. Came out like 
new. I also have a Valkyrie so I know carbs. It has six. I've done all my 
work.

After finally getting those carbs back on the bike there’s nothing like the
sound of a 700S idling perfectly at 1100 rpms. Didn’t even notice that it
was 35 degrees in the garage. Went back inside the house and had a nice

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Carbs started leaking out of the blue.

Jenya, since my last post here I removed the carbs on a 700S Nighthawk. The
same one I already removed the carbs and cleaned. Number 3 cylinder
wouldn’t fire so I removed the carbs again, blew out the slow speed jet
with compressed air and reinstalled the carbs. The bike runs fine now.
Point is I was able to remove the carbs, clean the one carb jets, check the
float level in that carb, reinstall the carbs and synchronize them, all in
about an hour and a half.

 Hi all - coming back to this thread. So I am about the get the carbs
 out and start the break down process.
 Few helpful hints for me if you please:
 1. What is the best cleaner for the carb parts that works well and is
 safe for the 36 yo carbs.
 2. Once I clean and put it all together, is there a way or a kind of
 liquid that I can fill the carbs with to check for leaks?
 Thank you in advance, Jenya

Of course this all assumes you have removed the tank and seat.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Carbs started leaking out of the blue.

Its not hard to do, you just have to persist. I forgot to mention, before
touching the carbs you have to move the airbox back as far as possible.
That means removing the two 10mm bolts holding the air breather cover in
place. Maybe also removing the bolts holding the battery cover on since the
bottom one anchors the battery box to the frame. I also push the plastic
inner rear fender back against the rear tire. There is a snap in place part
of that fender you can squeeze off the tube frame and so letting the inner
fender go back. Remember this is the inner fender, not the main rear
fender. I also undo the two bolts holding the regulator in place as this
prevents the air box from moving back. The regulator is attached to the
airbox. I just undo the bolts and let the regulator and bolts hang there.
Then I go to work removing the cables, undoing the boot bolts and take to
the carbs with a 1x2 to lever them out of the boots.
