Why does my 1983 honda shadow 500 leak fuel out top of carbs when starting it

It does not close the fuel intake in the carb, it is the valve with rubber on top of valve, this valve is attach to float. When this rubber is dirty or worn it doesn't close the fuel when the float is at max, so the fuel goes out through upper rubber pipe.

1984 VT 500 C Shadow: 1983 honda shadow -starts and runs, seems to miss ...

The fuel filter is in the tank on the petcock and is self cleaning. I suspect you have bad spark plug caps on your bike the cap is part of the wire. If you remove the wire and take a reading with an ohm meter, the cap should read 5000 ohms . Anything above or below and you should replace the cap. This is probably causing the slight miss.

How do you adjust the valves for an 1983 honda shadow 550

If you don't have a service manual, really consider getting one for your aging bike. Look up Clymer manuals or buy one from Honda. Meantime, check the 646 help section in reference at the library.

Valve specs for VT 500 honda shadow 1983

Hi,
Your valve clearances should be:
Intake .08-.12 mm (.003-.005 in)
Exhaust .12-.16 mm (.005-.006 in)
I usually start all gaps in the middle of given specs, then fine tune from there.
Hope this helps
