www.How2Wrench.com broke the mold of the delivery of tech training. We offer professional tech training over the phone. Your shop, your schedule. If you have Apple products, we can even provide guided assistance over Facetime. (I suggest asking a friend to borrow theirs now!)
Imagine this… you’re in your shop wrenching away and you get stuck. You just hit a wall and no matter how hard you try, you can’t find a next step. You reach for the phone and hit speed dial. The number saved in your favorites is your personal coach at How2wrench! No sitting through hours of CZcams videos, websites or giving up!
You can schedule time with a veteran technician to walk you through what you’re wrenching on. You can email info, photos and details directly to trainer. It’s the next closest thing to us sitting right next to you.
This service is intended to fill the gap in many areas of need. Let me list a few:
The DIY person needing help with a specific skill
A tech just needing an advanced lesson or next step in their knowledge base
Someone who would give anything to drop everything and move to a tech school but life just didn’t deal those cards. They understand the learning curve may take longer but are relentless in their desire to learn.
Observant parents lacking the skill sets to teach their kids mechanics but see them craving to use tools and their hands.

Top job shane 👍 exact same issue with my vmax.
I really appreciate that you cover the bases and work from the ground up when problem-solving. Your videos are helping me a great deal. I'm currently modifying a 1984 GR650 Tempter. Not many of those around. I have the carbs apart and have rejetted for an opened out air box and free-flow cans. But I see the need for further replacement parts. The Needle jets are numbered the same, but one is much larger opening than the other. Those jets are not available anymore, so I am now considering using the VM34 Mikuni's with the UFO mod -- or the Mikuni TM flatslide. A conundrum. Not sure which way to go to get the most out of this bike. Wish you were closer by.

I hope you don’t mind me asking but I have a 2014 ttr 125 with a Mikuni ucal carb but it has a badly stuck “choke”, I’ve been soaking it for days with carb cleaner and wd40 but she won’t come out, I even pulled the bowl off to see if I could get access to it on the inside but there isn’t a passage to bang it out, would you have any advice because it’s starting to bug me I just want to get the old choke out and get the new one in so I can go riding soon.
Very stupid late reply to your comment but theres a passage on the inside of the throat were you can see the plunger
Hey would a stuck fuel enrichment plunger (on a Honda VT500C) cause the bike to start fine but then lose a cylinder after warming up a bit? After that the cylinder fires again. I've replaced coils, ignition module, cleaned the carbs out, fresh spark plugs and wires. I'm losing my mind here. I could dig into the rectifier/stator more but it doesn't seem to be an ignition issue
Literally stumbled across this video saved me a shit load of cash thanks man awesome stuff

@@How2Wrench I thought I did I've made the change now brother
@@richardpurdy8573 Sometimes your settings are private and we can't see unless you join then we see a badge by your name as a member.
I have to hold my choke plunger open for a minute or two. I’m new to riding and bikes and have zero experience on what is normal choke behavior. If I pull the choke out, the bike starts and I can hear the RPMs drop a second or two after, and I have to pull back on the plunger and hold it that way, otherwise the bike just dies. There is an adjustment nut to tweak it, but I have no idea what the appropriate setting should be. I think it’s obvious I need more tension to keep it open, but for how long before the choke starts to close? 30 seconds, 45 seconds, 10 second? Thoughts?
Ive been having issues with my buddies bike. He was riding around with the choke all the way open. Smelling rich as hell. Said that he just had the carbs cleaned and synced. But if he turned the choke off it would kill the bike. Looking at it closer these plungers it looked like 1 was all the way open and the other was about halfway. Idk if its actually sticking but i couldn't find a way to adjust the linkage that opens the choke plungers. Any tips appreciated. Ty

Great video. I have a Honda CBR motorcycle that has a choke problem. Actually the choke arm on the side of the Carbs (that the choke cable connects to) appears locked / stuck solid. I cannot move it or slide it by hand. I assume it should be able to slide back and forward when the choke is operated? What might have happened plus how is this resolved please??

Shane does try answer some non members questions when he get's some time so hang tight if joining is not an option for you.
One of these days I hope to move from the office to the shop! Wish I knew the answer but don't want to bs you. He couldn't screen these requests fast enough...
If you need help sooner choose or more personal his 1:1 option is below!
He just returned from overseas training techs and his inbox is slammed with requests. He is scheduling time each day again to answer techline orders. He does not have the bandwidth to provide email replies as his schedule is full with shop customers, training schedules, and one on ones.
There's good news though! A deep dive one-on-one with him is an option. Use video, email and phone support.

Just in time!! I'm out of popcorn!! ;-)
:)
That's not really a choke,it's a fuel enricher. There is a difference.
John C Read the description for the video. Did you find any value in the technique demonstrated?
Hi Shane. I think your lessons are great, been watching them since you started. I didn't read description before writing comment. You called it a choke in the video, I just wanted to point out the difference between a choke and an enricher.
Thanks John. Its more common to call it a "choke" by the auidence of who would search for the video. Being a creator is difficult to use correct terminology and sometimes I goof...:)
This could be the subject of a future video for newer techs, who are not aware of the difference.
