Hello. I'm submitting this post for contention for ******** of the year award. I'll be volunteering in the cyber cafe in Wyoming so you can congratulate me there.
So I successfully adjusted the valves on my 93' k75 with 60k on it. THe idle was higher and like a genius I turned the middle throttle body screw to adjust it. Of course, nothing happened. THen I realized I turned the wrong damn screw! Now it backfires like hell. I mean like a .357. The TPS clicks just fine
I saw Paul Glaves post on another bmw site about discombobulated throttle valve screws. I cranked all screws (brass) out 1/4 turn and hooked up my homemade POS manometer to bodies 2 and 3. I had the tee fitting installed on the last one. Well it instantlly sucked all the tranny fluid I used into the 3rd throttle body. I said the hell with this as now I have to wait an hour for all the bubbles to settle. I'm going to invest in a dial type gauge setup. This was too messy. Anyway...
I tried to put the middle throttle body back to about what I remember and turned all brass screws out 1 full turn. It's a mess. THe bike runs really well actually but back fires like a cannon. It even idles good. Yet, I know it's a synchronous disaster. The valve adjustment went a long way! Where should I start in putting this back in order? THanks so much everyone! You guys rule!
Sincerely,
******** of the Year
