Hey Guys,
Had the week off uni so decided to do a service on my 07 10r.
So far i've managed to change the spark plugs with the proper NGK CR... ones (without iridium) and plug the cords back in all fine.
Put the tank back on.
Then went to change the coolant and managed to drain the coolant via the lowest drain plug (below and to the right of reserve tank) however the higher one that sits to the left of the reserve would'nt move and started to burr it so I left it.
Measured the amount I took out, put the new stuff back in.
Manual said to start it without cap, wait for bubbles and then refil.
However when I started it, after 15 secs I noticed a faint smell of heat/smoke
Looked down at the exhaust pipes where they enter the housing and it seems it was coming from them.
After further trial/error it seems its rising from one pipe individually.
Its a real clear, whitish smoke and has a faintish smell of smoke.
I revved the engine a bit and noticed the exhaust's where spitting fuel (presume its fuel) out of the back.
Didnt care to keep doing it so shut it down and here I am.
Ive decided to take off everything again and double check the plugs, but before I do that any tips?
I used cooland with distilled water, and topped it up (100mls or so) with just distilled.
Reserve looks good.
The coolant did go down after a run or two, so filled it back up.
Sounds like all cyclinders are firing.
Has sat on the side-stand for a week.
Side-note. I took the secondary butterflies out and the previous owner made the OEM pipes straight through, with no remapping or power commander.
Can it just be running way to rich and its spitting and leaking fuel?
Haven't changed the oil yet also.
Thanks guys
