WILL NOT START
« on: September 12, 2006, 09:39:17 PM »
Can anyone help with my problem.

Just installed a recon engine, the bike turns over but will not fire. It has compression and spark so i think it something to do with the carb.

any help will be great.

plugs wet or dry?  dry no fuel

wet too much fuel not enough air... Air filter clean?


strip and rebuild the carbs make sure all the O rings are ok

plug leads on in the correct order ?

check the timing

battery fully charged?


as a last resort a squirt of easystart to help it catch

think thats everything

Andy

then balance the carbs
