Only running with the choke out means it is lean and probably has dirt in the passageways of the carb. Clean carb and float bowl of sediment and water .
Hi Roderick:
I'm not familiar with your engine configuration, but on some of the older bikes, vibration eventually can cause a wire to break in the coil. When the engine is cold, the wires make contact and it runs, but as soon as it gets hot, the connection is broken or compromised and the spark quits or drives you crazy.
Since your bike runs when cold and quits when hot, I'd be looking for electrical rather than fuel problems.
Hope this helps.
Maybe the choke once on is not turning off fully? When running and you stick choke on in normal circumstances, it gets all "stally" doesn't it? Found my cable simply sticking choke half on on my zx7r.
1. When you rev it up, has it reached its normal operating temperature?
2. If you know how to then check your timing as it sounds like a little off at the moment. When did you have it adjusted last?
3.You can add some fuel cleaner when filling up again and run with it until the tank is low again.
God enough, then return a comment. Thanks
Did you check to see what was inside th eold fuel filter? I ask because If your tank has water and or rust or trash of sufficient quanity it may already be clogging the new filter. The only other thing I think of is the automatic choke may be sticking causing the fuel mixture to be to rich.
