My warriors backfiring through the intake(hot or cold). Its a light backfire more of a puff. sometimes theres a click sound - im kinda thinking its the carb slide closing fast?? Usually it will die when this happens. Some times it will do it a few times before it dies. When the chokes on or its reved up it will stay running - it still backfires throught the intake just not as much.
Ive cleaned out the carb twice.
Ive checked the timing.
Ive checked the valve gap.
Ive replaced the intake boot.
As far as I know everything internal is stock. Its got a DMC full exhaust. Proflow K&N filter Stock air box. 150 main jet.
It was running fine. Next time I rode it it backfired but stayed running. But sometimes randomly stalled. The next time I rode it backfires and dies.
Reason for replacing the intakeboot:
I was thinking vacuum leak. I turned the idle up so it would stay running. Still backfired a bit but stayed running. I sprayed brakecleaner on the intake boot area. When spraying on the clutch side it appeared the engine would rev up. I read in a few places the intake boot was common for cracking so I replaced it. Didnt fix the problem.
Unless im crazy it seems that when I spray the back corner of the head gasket(clutch side) with brakecleaner the engine revs up.
The ground strap on the plug is white indicating lean. When I changed it last the old plug looked like it might have been a bit rich.
Anythoughts on where to look for my problem?
Any opinions on the headgasket + brakeclean = engine rev?
