Triumph st 1050 2010 Started bike and left running too long. Came back later to find bike had powered off and was very hot. Unable to start. No power with ignit ion on and red start switch on.

The bike has over heated ---- my own fault. But is there an auto shutdown mode the bike goes into to save the engine. There was no sign of leaks from the coolant system. Helpppppp

Try disconnecting the battery, wait a few minutes, reconnect it, and try again. If that doesn't work, then you will need to take it to a Triumph repaired for diagnosis.

1986 honda shadow vt1100. Whenever I hook up the battery the starter starts to crank, and continues to crank until battery is disconnected or dies.

solenoid or relay stuck, if water has managed to get in over the 2 years or its corroded up the connections will connect, when the power went in the first time it moved but is unable to go back into the original off position.

1970 truck. How do I start it without a key?

It should be easy to hot-wire the switch. There is a hot power-in wire, a run wire at the "on" position, and a start wire at the start position. That is all you need. First locate the power wire, twist it with the run wire. Now the ignition should be on, the dash warning lights and gauges on. Now if you take the start wire and touch it to those two twisted together, the engine should crank over and start.

This is a quick way to get it started, but you have to cut the wires. If you pull off the ignition switch connector, you might be able to use short jumper wires from the hot wire to the run position, and one to the start wire. Then if you get a new key and lock cylinder later, all you have to do is to plug back in the switch connector.

Suspect you have a loose clamp on a radiator hose or the oil change guy made something leak. There is a tool which is similar to a a bicycle pump in that it pressurizes the water system and your engine does not have to run or be hot to test. Some major auto parts stores may have a loaner.

Its going to stay hot and lose pressure until you fix the leak.

Hi, i have a triumph spitfire 4 1963 have recently converted it from pos ground to neg ground ,fitted alternator new plugs points condenser ,coil, car runs for aprox 3 miles then splutters to a halt ,after...

It sounds like you have to fit a ballast resistor in the power supply to the coil or get a 12 volt coil. Later spits (-ve earth) used a 9 volt coil with a resistor to drop the battery volts down when running, when starting the full volts are used but the starter will drop this to 9 or 10 anyway, this helped cold starts.)

Vehicle won't start

Sounds like they shorted out. or got water in the ign. coils These individual coils are very tempermental on these models. Dialectric grease helps on all connectors but doesnt always prevent moisture shorting out electrical parts.
