- Already checked intank filter, it is clean. Disassembled petcock and had not problems. How do I know if carborator is getting enough fuel?Sep 16, 2009
- Ok checked spark, it is fine. I need to know what is the best way to check if enough fuel is getting to the carb!?Sep 16, 2009
- Ok, bike seems to not be getting enough fuel through line, is the petcock controlled by electrical current or vacum and can this be effecting the fuel flow if the pecock not working correctly and can I add a fuel cleaner additive to fuel to clean out gummed carb?Sep 16, 2009
- In this bike there is no inline filter, but will install one, the coil and spark are working fine the charging system also seems to be working correctly. wondering if the carb is gummed up and need to know how to clean it up?Sep 16, 2009
- Just a little concerned, of why the bike starts up again when I mess with the petcock, do you think I should replace that part? just incase it is faulty? plus cleaning out the carb which I will be doing! just trying to cover all endsSep 16, 2009
