Hows my setup?(puch)

I just bought the $100 shipped Airsal 70cc kit, and a dellorto SHA 16/16 carb with intake and jets from 80-100. I've already got a tecno circuit, and will probably have the opportunity to try out other pipes. Anyone running this kit/carb setup? It seems that most peeps are running in the mid 80's with this kit and a midsize carb. Any problems I would run into when assembling a week? I know how to smooth out the ports, and the wiki says that they should be, but what would I do differently when working witht the nikasil lining? Does it chip easily? Use a different bit? Any help is appreciated. Joe

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

I actually think your jet will be in the 70's. check the spreadsheet again for puch people with 16 dels and 70 kits!! try the 82 that comes in the carb. i bet its four stroke city!!

yeah your jet will definitely be in the 70's....o lawd.

Well shit, I'll see if treats shipped my order yet and change it. With my luck, it's probably already at my door.

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

I got everything in, and included a few pics. Overall, I really like this kit. Has mild transfers(I did casematch) and everything fit together like a dream, no added base gaskets or the piston hitting the head. I got it all back on the magnum, and started with a 90 jet just for the fun of it. I Let it idle till it got warm to the touch, and idled great. Obviously I'll feel the main jet when I ride it, but it sounds great on the stand. I'll update tommorow night when I get to ride it a little more. Joe

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

joe,

thanks for the picks I ordered the same kit and it will be going on a magnum same as yours. what carb and intake is that?

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

"dellorto SHA 16/16 carb with intake"

Read the original post carefully...

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

hey joe! I got that same setup and it's funny, i installed that sucker tonight too lol.

Do you put the piston with those holes in it up towards intake or towards exhaust? I would guess exhaust right

And i cant get mine to idle, not sur what problem is. I had 82 in there and running a 74

I have puch, with proma gp, dell sha 16.16, and airsal 70 almost exact same setup, how far is ur mixture screw in or out? Tryig to get this thing goin good tonight to make it on a ride tommrowo

holes in piston face UP

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

Holes are boost ports and point to the intake!

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

joe schuit /

yep, holes face up. The intake is actually 15mm, but I don't dare drill it out considering how thin it is. Today I'll check for air leaks and start to get it moving under its own power. Wish me luck. Joe

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

Good luck bro hehe. Today i am gonna work on trying to figure out why it wont idle. Any ideas? it idle'd pretty good before, a little high, but idle pretty well.

The kit is fast, I drove it around for maybe 20 miles to warm it up, then hit about 80% thottle real quick cause a honda civicold one was trying to ride my ass, that thing kicks! Gained ground on him very quick like was at 35 in no time at all with not even full throttle , i wonder how fast this kit is after i break it in. He got mad and started flouring it lol, but i was still gaining ground on him till he hit about 40mph in a 30( i hit about 33 real quick from about 16) . Then i pulled to the side and let him pass me cause he was obviously a retard trying to race me on a moped. I hope he felt like shit being out accelarated by a ped at 75% throttle.

Any ideas on my idling problem? Im running dellorto 16 and 74 jet now, 82 seemed to kinda 4 stroke but maybe it wasnt warmed up. Will try 80 today and my 78.

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

1. SHA carbs do not have a mixture screw. They have a throttle stop screw to set your idle rpms. all it does is stop the slide from closing all the way.

2. Your piston is upside down. The holes point up.

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

You think my piston is upside down and that why it dies so quick? I pretty sure i had them up, i will double check today, if it upside down, would it have done any damage from 20 miles of riding ? i it about 75% thottle max---

Im pretty sure i got them up, but i will doubel check. What is that little screw on the throttle cable and the one on teh side with the spring?

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

If it doesn't idle, the most likely bet is air leak. Find it!

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

joe schuit /

The screw on the throttle cable is to adjust tension, and the screw with the spring on it is the idle adjustment.

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

i was thinking about getting that same setup let me know what top end and low end is like when its broke in i have a techno circuit and mine hits 33 im looking into going 50+

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

I got up to 38 last night before i ran outta room and i was still accelrating at a nice rate at 75-80% throttle . I was running a 14x45 too and i hear that is not for speed but for torque. Plus i prolly got an air leak somewhere and it wasnt tuned in at all. Ate up that hill tha was raping me too. My ped was stalling on it . like stopping and wanting to roll backwards lol. I took it about 25 last night, but my ford focus new model has trouble on that.

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

I am not light eitehr, prolly 210 or so , give or take 10 lbs hehe.

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

So what jet are you running?

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

I got a friend that says the circuit pipe really chokes the high end power. He has had the best luck with the estroils.

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

joe schuit /

I went down to an 83 because of the crazy 4stroking the 90 was. Low end is much better than stock, but still breaking in. Once its broken in, I could mess with the timing, but also plan on switching exhausts. Anyone have a pipe they want to trade for a circuit?

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

Zack Rineer /

I see..

Nice!

Im kitting mine in about two weeks and have a similar set-up.. Just waiting for the kit to come in the mail. AHHh

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

joe schuit /

I forgot to add, when I'm going around 25-30mph, and let off the throttle completely for a few seconds and try to give it throttle again, it bogs down to around 10mph or so, and recovers. No matter how much I finess the throttle, it seems like it almost chugs out. Maybe the cylinder gets filled with gas? Pretty clueless.

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

i think im goin to order one of these do a lot of port work 19 del PHBG carb and custom intake trying to get around 55 but someone said the circuit chokes top end? estorils are better? i no you can deristrict the circuit and would that make it better on top end or is that pipe no good

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

I went on like a 25 to 30 mile ride the last night and i noticed mine was doin the same thing except it wouldnt idle to begin with. Was a pain in the ass but the ride was badass. At the very end my ped wouldnt start though, i was very low on gas, but there was some in there. It did the same the first day i got it, rode it then it died on me. I shook it and heard gas in it im pretty sure, but once i filled it up it started. Anyone else have troubles when low on gas but not totally empty. It was really low.

Re: Hows my setup?(puch)

I hope i didnt screw my new kit up. I brought it up to full throttle , but no more than 1 to 2 seconds at a time. Also didnt let it coast down hils and varied throtle all night.

UPDATE:

joe schuit /

I've got some great news! After putting a total of 45 miles on it, it started to sputter and finally died and couldn't be restarted. Carb was spotless, and was getting spark. was getting gas. Found out the plug was fouled out. I still have the 83 jet in it, would it be safe to downjet some more? I have an 80 and 82. I understand you need to run rich for breaking in, but is this too rich? Other than that, it's running sweet. Joe

Re: UPDATE:

Zack Rineer /

Nice man!

keep me updated!

I need to know what jets to run. haha

Re: UPDATE:

not too rich. I dont think the rings break-in and seat properly with too rich a mixture. Also SHA's suck balls.
