This bike has about 63,000 miles on it and it has sat for sometime. It has always been difficult to start...but, once it was warmed up, it ran fine.
I was riding it and it all of a sudden quit. I messed with it long enough to figure out that the fuel pump quit working. I was able to install an automotive4 psi electric fuel pump and that made the bike start. The bike actually ran very good. I then started it the next day...it ran for about 1 minute and died. It would not start again!!
The next day....
It started and and then died after about 2 minutes. It would not start again. It will however run on carburetor/choke cleaner fine though, but once you stop spraying, it will die immediately.
I believe it is a fuel related problem. Perhaps this fuel pump is too much for this bike or vice versa. Carbureter problem due to sitting so long or me spraying carburetor/choke cleaner into the CV carburetors.
I am at a lost and need some help.......:stumped::12ltd:
Thanks
