dixie Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Went out for a practice last nite and flooded my mates pickup with fuel i have got into the bad habit of leaving the fuel on WATCH OUT the bike was a bit further over than normal,i could smell petrol on inspection fuel was dripping out all over. I tried in vain to start it at my practice spot (yes i was a bit miffed) when i got home without a ride, i found about a mug full of petrol in the air box (and i had tried to bump start ,BANG,)just aswell it did not start. after stripping the carb no muck or problembs where evident. I did ishys hot start mod while i was in there. put it all back together and it started first kick Lessons re learned TAKE YOUR TOOLS WITH YOU TURN THE FUEL OFF By the way the hot start mod seems to work a treat, I will do a trial and let you know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
