Did you plug the vacuum port on the right side of the head - if not that will be a massive vacuum leak.

Edit: Also check if the vent tubes off the carb float bowl are kinked - that will kill it too.

yep plugged it off with a vaccum plug .thanks

there is something that looks like a small in line filter is that supposed to come off to along with the piece tie wrapped to th espeddo bracket ?thanks

Only other things I can think would be any of the vent lines off the carb kinked or blocked, or the vent line on the tank - maybe the one-way valve backwards? The fuel petcock is open, right? Open your gas cap and see if it makes an air sucking/vacuum being released kind of sound after the engine stalls.

That's the one way valve - it lets air into the tank as the fuel level drops, but prevents fuel from sloshing out. If it were backwards, it wouldn't let air in - a vcuum would form in the tank and no fuel would flow to the carb.

theres a hose coming off the gas tank that can pinch not letting the tank vent so no vacuum and bike dies
i did that on i took off my smog crap
took a day to figure out what i did wrong

 

[Wr_guy]

If the tank vent were pinched it would idle but not rev out...I'm guessing vacuum leak....is it backfiring?

 

[turbobuick2003]

i'm getting ready to go check all the things that was mentioned and i'll give a update thanks for the help .

 

[turbobuick2003]

fixed it! it was the tee on the clear lines that are on the carb thanks
