Carbs on my 86 are constantly flooding out. Research has led me to float needle problems. Will these fit? I need some ASAP.

Shined a light and found a hole in the top of the piston towards the exhaust side.

1000. Maines mean elevation is 600. The area I was in was 300

Is a #310 main jet safe for this sled running in Maine at 25 F along with the new ethanol gas? Could this be my problem?

I'm trying to salvage the seat on my 86. It is a 9 out of 10 but has a few small tears in the gold piping where it meets the gas tank. I would like to fix it or at least do something to it to keep it from worsening. Any suggestions?

How do I check for air leak and the crank seal

Must be in excellent condition.

Thanks

Well, For 3 years now I've had an 83 that Ran ok but I could never seem to get it dialed in in the clutches no matter what I tried. Decided to pass it on and start over.

Someone on this site sold me an 86 Vmax 540. After picking it up and traveleing home 3 hours I noticed something didn't look right. After looking over the photos that he showed to market the sled, I noticed that the original windshield with the factory YAMAHA logo had been removed prior to sale. Wel...
