September 4, 20178 yr Got a. Bit of a query ..... I have a 300 4t ...... when it's been on it's side it feels different on the kick down stroke ..... as if you have to kick it really fast about four times to get the engine turning over fast enough to start ? If I leave it for 5 mins it goes back to normal on the kick start has anybody experienced this or know what it could be causing it? Any help would be appreciated cheers folks ?
September 4, 20178 yr Could be fuel leaking into the intake manifold then into cylinder. When it does start is it running very rich? This is fairly common on all bikes except on two stokes the fuel gets into the crankcase and so it doesn't raise the apparent compression.
September 4, 20178 yr Have you knocked the fuel 'tap'? Some have a plunger which needs to be pulled down to run position , if it's up it's on 'prime' setting....
September 6, 20178 yr when you lay them down they flood fuel gets in to air box as i found out lol so as you kick them over sucks the fuel in making them rich, i dont think it had a drain plug in the air box i put a one in, left open (bladder type) no probs again hope this helps Edited September 6, 20178 yr by on it add info
