RZBansheeMan Posted September 13, 2007 Report Posted September 13, 2007 Make sure that there isn't any old stale ass gas in it. Pull the fuel petcock and carbs apart and make sure they're not all gummed up. Make sure the mice haven't eaten your wire harness or built a neat little nest in the exhaust or air box for ya. Check all the fluids. I would pull the exhaust off and look up into the exhaust ports and make sure the cylinders aren't rusty. "Fog" basically means to prime it and get it lubed up before trying to just start it. Quote
