 Let me show you what this bad boy can do. Hey guys, welcome back to the Titanium Man Garage. And today I'm working on a 600 for a customer of mine. And the story goes he had bought the thing from a friend of his. The friend had put a different carburetor on. From what I'm hearing it ran good for a bit, but then it started eiling her off and acting weird so the guy turned the eil up really high. So I pulled the air box off, and any of you guys ever work on your carbs? What do you see wrong there? So he bought an aftermarket carb and had this vacuum thing that comes out of the diaphragm. That's supposed to be plugged. So this is kind of correct. So the vents for the carb here and over here are completely blocked off. So it's not venting correctly so that would explain why you need to bump up the eil high. So whoever put this carb in did it completely wrong. This part he did right aftermarket carb goes to your pulse pump, the vacuum line. On the 600s the hose for the fuel pump actually goes into the crank case and that makes the pulse pump pump. So that's about the only thing you need to write. I also noticed when I started it, the tachometer didn't work. So as you can see somebody messed with that too because the cigarette lighter is missing. So these 600s and 700s can be problematic. They all rely off the battery. If the battery is not fully charged, starts getting low, you'll start having electrical issues. Usually wears out the groans and it's more on the ground and fries whatever circuitries that's going on, like the tachometer. I'm going to try to start this thing for you so you can see how it runs. See how it idles. It's pretty rough. So I'm testing the battery. Battery voltage is good so I know that's not going to be the issue. Let me show you what else I found. So here's the yellow wired on by the regulator rectifier that you need to look at. Just connect that. Clean off any terminals. See if that might be why the RPM isn't working or I might have to replace that. Also looking and look at that. That is wide open. That's not supposed to be like that. Some damage to the wires. The bulb isn't even hooked up. This was taken off. I'm going to go through the insulation taken away from the red wire here so that might be touching something. I'm also going to swap out that carb. Got a different aftermarket carb. It doesn't have that vacuum line on the top for the diaphragm. I don't even know why they put those on the aftermarket ones. I don't like them. I try to order them without them. So I'm going to swap out that carb. Hopefully that makes a difference but I'm still wondering why the RPMs do not show. So from the research I did, it has to do with the regulator rectifier that runs off the stator. I'm going to start off with that carb first. Swap that out and see what happens. I'm going to go over everything and clean up any terminals. This was actually loose. This is loose. It's not in all the way. So I'll just be looking everything over. Alright guys, similar situation. The last 700 I had I posted a video on. It's sucking in air. That's why it's idling so high. The intake boot or what I like to call the carb boot is ripped. I don't know if I can get a good shot of that with the lighting right down there. Nice rip in it. It's got cracks in it. I actually can't see it. It's over on this side. Here we go. I got it off. You can see a little better. Look at that. Oh, not good. It's another common problem with the six and seven hundreds. I'm going to probably replace that boot but I just might try to take a little sealer or something and try to seal it up for now. It's a temporary fix and keep going. Alright, so I figured out the high idle. Now I'm trying to figure out why the tachometer doesn't work. So I'm overlooking my wiring harness. This is split open. I've got some fraying down here on the red wire. I started wiggling on the yellow wire. Remember what I said about the yellow wire going to the stator? That's just pulled right out. I'm going to inspect the yellow wire to see if there's any fraying going on. Because this was open, this wasn't connecting. That's why the tachometer didn't work. Alright, so I took this clip off and somebody monkeyed with this before because whoever pushed the clip back on. This little plastic piece was in and out. That's supposed to lock that pin in. And it was on the outside of the plastic case which is why it popped out when they plugged it back in. So these are the locking tabs that hold your connectors in place. So I'm going to try to carefully push that back together and somehow fasten this up so it stays together. And that should cure my problem. Yeah, it's working. Is that chewed up red wire that I found underneath the... Sometimes it's the little things you need to look for. Hope you liked this video. Hit the thumbs up if you liked it. And subscribe.
