What did your figure out.

Nothing yet the power valve part has not arrived I'm hoping tomorrow this is my 1st day off this week I will keep you posted once I have part.

I have checked all PV parts and rest is fine and all set up correctly as far as I can tell from manual.

If I start bike remove PV arm and moved PV manually that would tell me if it's pv or not?

It might but you would have to rev the engine and open power valve at same time and not positive if you can time it all correct . But could try or just wait for lever . Don’t forget new lock nut with the teflon and washer . Make sure linkage rod is not in bind when you tighten it all

So while replacing the actuator part (came today old one in photo ) I noticed still not perfect done ABIT more research and the idiots have welded the arm on backwards so it's hitting the side of hole arm goes through found one online going to try pick it up this weekend.

You ordered the part that bolts in with two screws and had linkage rod ? Not the part with bubba welded stud on it ? I thought you ordered the welded repaired part ?

 

[spinisking]

yes i ordered the new first picture and when fitting new one realised the second picture linkage arm was welded too so i checked online and its backwards

 

[Hellcat]

Never seen the part that bolts down in engine case broke before

 

[Hellcat]

Yeah your issue like I said was power valve . And as mentioned some previous owner did something wrong and you now have to figure out what .

 

[Hellcat]

Don’t forget to address your reeds not fully closing . I hate that boyseen setup they used back then . They could have made a better hold down bar . They should have made it with slide wedge or angle to it . They just flat and don’t hold the petals down good and flat

You say the stud is welded on wrong side of the linkage bar ? You can’t unbolt it and turn it over ?
