Electrical problem, Igintion problem or Engine issue ??? Need Help

[maxtog]

The rest of the valve do not leak, but do not have been removed.
The mechanic told me that want to do the clearence adjustment before remove the other valve.
I told him that the other valve have to have a lot of carbon too.
Have not sense after open the engine, do not clean all the valves.

OK, I guess we wait and see!     (I believe you are saying that you will check the other valves after the clearances are measured)

Blimey, that is well gummed up, have you been running it on diesel LOL

Wow!  That is horrible!  I guess you will need to remove and clean all of it.  This does look more like a mix problem than just a gas quality/type issue, to me....  but I am no mechanic.

Yep, that there is a LOT of carbon in the combustion chambers.

Here in the northeast US, we get a lot of our fuel oil from Veneuala in recent years. I have been told that while it is fine if it is used, if it sits for an extended period of time, the bottom of the tank turns into #6 fuel oil or 'sludge', which was never a problem with #2 fuel oil from the mid- east. So perhaps your gasoline has a higher percentage of solids in it than some gasoline from other places?

My suggestion would be to run some fuel injector cleaner through the bike every 5,000 miles or so and prevent that from happening again. And by the way, only use fuel injector cleaner on the last tank of fuel before an oil change as that stuff will turn the motor oil black and thin it WAY down in my experience.  It is best not to leave a crankcase full of that stuff after using it but instead drain it by changing the oil.

 If you don't know the history of the spark plugs, check those also as they may be the wrong heat range. I have seen other engines all carboned-up from using too cold a spark plug.

Somebody told few days ago, that Add Transmission fluid (around 200 cc) every
gas tank, prevent carbon deposit.
Have you listen something about that ?
Is that true ?

Nope never heard of that.

There are a lot of additives to add to gas if you feel it's really needed, but transmission fluid is not one of them.

Star Tron, Sea Foam, and Techron are 3 popular ones here in the USA.

Nope never heard of that.

Me neither

Unless we're talking tires, oil or KIPASS!

Batteries, too.

I have heard of using transmission fluid to clean out the carbon but it was YEARS ago. Back when I got my very first car, 1969 Dodge Polaris, I was told to dump small amounts of transmission fluid into the intake while keeping the engine running by keeping the revs up. I don't know how well it cleaned the carbon out but it sure smoked up the neighborhood!

[VirginiaJim]

Transmission fluid is for automobile transmissions.  You are better off using a gasoline additive like Techron every once in awhile just before an oil change.  Most of these stories like C speaks of were in simpler times with simple engines.  Stick with stuff made to do the job, not something you heard from your friend's brother's second cousin.

Besides the gas additives already mentioned, I have seen proof that spraying water on the intake air helps remove carbon deposits at least partially, but the engine where this fix was tested was not as "carbonized" as yours. Glad you found the cause.

[Gscott]

Methanol will work better than water, just slowly pour or spray into intake. Would be a pain to do in a M/C though.

Some WWII military aircraft had water and methanol injection to temporarily boost power. System was called War Emergency Power or WEP.

That is actually used on many supercharger/turbocharger installations too as a way to cool down the cylinders.  My friend added one on his- it is funny because it just pulls the mix from the already-existing, huge windshield washer fluid tank.

[Gscott]

I used on it turbocharged type 1 VW. Best pump and container I found was off a mid 80's Toyota.

[Gscott]

OOPS, should have also put it was a windshield washer bottle and pump.

My bike is on the road again, feel very well.
I would like to thanks to everybody in this forum.
This is an amazing place !!!!

As always I say.
I know that my english Suc.....
But,  I'm now 51 and sincerely the hope that
i can improve at this time has gone !!!!! 

Happy Christmas and keep safe.
