GOT SPARK BUT BIKE WON’T RUN
Common issue for this is your bike is running rich or lean
Remove spark plug and have a good look at the colour of the tip, if the colour is;
1. white/whitish –than you’re running lean (not enough fuel)
2. Black/Blackish –Then you’re running rich (too much fuel)
3. Brown – Should indicate a healthy carburetor (not too lean or rich, just right)
-make sure that the carby manifold is tightened correctly with no air or gaps, if so please tighten.
-try spraying aero start in the air filter, than try starting the bike. If this starts the issue is resolved, if dies out please see below.
TEST IF BIKE IS RUNNING RICH OR LEAN.
1. Make sure your spark plug is clean
2. Take your bike for a 5 to 10 minute hard spin
3. Take the spark plug out and see what colour it is.
The carburetor needle could be too high or low, which could cause the bike to run rich or lean. If the bike is running rich, than you might want to
lower the needle one notch and visa versa if it’s running too lean.
OTHER COMMON ISSUES
- Retire old fuel
- Fuel does get old, it is recommended to drain fuel and replace with fresh fuel as fuel life expectancy is 1 month for 4 stroke.
- Knicked fuel line
- Fuel line knicked is due to the line being to short, replace with longer fuel line
CHOKE IN UPRIGHT POSITION
- If product is spluttered or stall this is generally because choke is in the upright position. Please only keep choke in the up position
when warming up and then place down while riding.
CUTTING IN AND OUT
- Please remove air filter and give a good clean and place back in.
BIKE EXCESSIVELY WET?
-Ensure after each ride that the product is dried around all electrical components.
(Hint) Water replacement (DW40) spray on cup lings can help remove water)
