Motor cycle starts once it is warmed up stalls out

SOURCE: stalling out

u have the mixture screw wound in to far. its normally located on the bottom of the carb. try winding it out half a turn at a time once the bike has warmed up. also turn the idle screw out a quarter of a turn at the time its in to far thats why it idles at low revs. the choke is needed to keep the air fuel mixture right thats why u are having to leave it on for so long. hope this helps.

Hi and welcome to FixYa,

Appreciate the direct "Ask Me".

Your described problem based on the bike being a 1982 model could be varied, among them are:

• weak spark - not necessarily weak battery. Culprits could be loose loose connector to the CDI, low IGN +12 to the + terminal of the coil (check with a voltmeter while just switch on and when cranking/starting), or even a loose ground terminal. Check spark by removing plugs, reconnect the plugwires, let the threaded end touch metal part of engine, crank. Sparks should be strong;
• corroded/poor contacts in the ignition switch resulting to the above. You can test by running a jumper wire straight from the battery to the + terminals of the ignition coil;
• too lean air/fuel - plugs should be brownish in color;
• air or vacuum leak - resulting to the above and high or poor idling;
• unbalanced carbs - carb check/clean, verify air adjustment screw number of turns,
  
• compression low - have a compression check.

check exhaust gasket for leak, check spark plug, air filter,valve tappet clearance adjustment, and intake boot for leak,if ok do compression test142-203 psi. if ok carburator may need cleaning.

Ive found that the carbs need the coreect airflow to work correctly.If you dismantle the carbs and make sure all the air passages are clear from blockages.Ive got an early gs550 in a gokart and it had no airbox and it was doing the same untill i covered some of the carb throats with my hand and then she would rev her nuts off.if you take any air screws out mark there position and count the turns out to place them back in the same place.Im making my own manometer using some 4mm hose a garden sprinkler 4mm attachment and a cheap airflow meter from cip1.com.

running the correct air box is crucial and the filter must be clean.

hope this helps David New Zealand

It depends on the tempature, if its pretty chilly out yeah. Try easing the choke in slowly, and when it will idle at about half choke go aheand and take off but run the bike easy for a few minutes then close the choke.
