platinumjason Posted July 3, 2006 Report Posted July 3, 2006 Good gas in it? Have you checked the plugs to make sure they're not fouled? Quote
LIM_Whiteboy4life Posted July 3, 2006 Report Posted July 3, 2006 fill it to the top my 01 didnt like to run lower than 1/4 tank and it would run on 1 cyl but i fixed it by evening out the lines and check your plugs if it doesnt fire then thats a diff story lol Quote
herc_007 Posted July 3, 2006 Author Report Posted July 3, 2006 Yea, there's gas (is it possible that is you store your shee for say 2 to 3 weeks that the oil slowly sinks and your mixture wil be screwed?) I will check the plugs tommorow, but what is the best way to check if they're not fouled? Quote
dajogejr Posted July 3, 2006 Report Posted July 3, 2006 Shake the bike standing on the pegs for 5 to 10 seconds. That will eliminate your mixing gas worries. For less than 2 dollars a plug, buy two new ones. Air filter clean..? Last time out, few weeks ago, did it run fine when you put it away? Quote
herc_007 Posted July 3, 2006 Author Report Posted July 3, 2006 (edited) i'l try it all, thats why i want many suggestions, so i can try the most common things before is take serious actions. Yes it ran pretty fine, but because i didnt have enough time it stayed stored for a lil wile. But is this normal (after some storage that it wont start) Appreviate all the help...thnx Edited July 3, 2006 by herc_007 Quote
dajogejr Posted July 4, 2006 Report Posted July 4, 2006 Normally...after storing, it might take a few kicks...but it should start. 3 weeks isn't long enough for gas to go bad...a few months, sure. Before you pull all your hair out, might not be a bad idea to drain all the gas and put fresh stuff in if the easy things don't work... Quote
herc_007 Posted July 4, 2006 Author Report Posted July 4, 2006 Problem solved!.....Spark plugs gave a real weak spark, when i replaced them, it screamed again like there's no tommorow :baseballcap_blue: Appreciate all the quick help Quote
dajogejr Posted July 4, 2006 Report Posted July 4, 2006 Yep...you could've easily spent hundred of dollars and hours trying to fix two dollar plugs... Glad to hear...!! Quote
LIM_Whiteboy4life Posted July 4, 2006 Report Posted July 4, 2006 man im lucky since i got my shee in nov. its been a 1-3 kick starter no matter how long its been stored Quote
