Can this kit be used for engines with performance modifications?

Troubleshooting
Engine is running rough after installation.
Double-check all vacuum lines and intake connections for leaks. Ensure the carburetor is properly tuned. Verify that all spark plugs are correctly installed and gapped.
Visible oil or coolant leaks detected.
Inspect the specific leaking gasket or O-ring. Ensure the mating surface was perfectly clean and flat. Verify that all related bolts were torqued to the manufacturer's specifications in the correct sequence. Minor leaks may require re-torquing; significant leaks might necessitate replacing the affected gasket.
Difficulty installing certain O-rings or gaskets.
Consult the Yamaha XTZ 750 service manual for precise placement. Ensure you are using the correct part from the kit for the specific location. Gentle manipulation may be needed, but avoid stretching or deforming the components.
