How long do you choke and run your bike before taking off?
Mine has been sitting since Aug. 28, only started one time and dang, she is cold and sluggish!! Or is there something I should do to clear her throat from the long sit?

You can do this
How to use SeaFoam to clean your Engine - The RIGHT way! or you can just throw some in the gas tank and take it for a run. |

I go full choke for about one min then lower it as far as she will stay running. Usually no problems even in the low thirties.

if its really bad might have to run a tank of fuel thru her to notice a difference, I swear by sea foam, to help keep fuel system clean, or clean it to a point, its not a mirricale cure but close

Two things...The above Seafoam article is a for car...Putting a half of can in your gas tank...your not going to get any results in 3 miles...Run the crap out of it...refill and put
the other half in and again run her...it may take several cans to clean things up...it is pretty good stuff...but it takes way more than a few miles for it to do its job... Good Luck Last edited by finjoey; 11-17-2012 at 07:24 PM. |
