Just finished a valve clearance check, replaced a few shims and now have 0.005" clearances across the board. Emptied a can of Honda's carb/combustion chamber cleaner into the carb intakes and compression check now looks better -
#1 - 140 (130 before)
#2 - 150 (same)
#3 - 165 (150 before)
#4 - 165 (150 before)
Question - although the compression has improved, cylinder #4 now has a cold exhaust, whilst the others are hot after running the bike for a while. Ok, not cold, but only mildly warm. Plugs on #3 and 4 look a little oiled.
Weird?
