SATANSAM Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Hi friends.... After running the bike for a while perfectly, the bikes starts to choke, cilynders start to fail and I thing it might be the fuel cap that shuts hermetically the tank creating "emptyness" and not letting fuel go down to the carbs...When I open the tang IT SUCKS AIR THROUGH THE SAME HOLE! If anyone can help ...Thanx in advace amigos. Quote Link to comment

bluedog59 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Disconnect the fuel line at the tap and test the flow. Does it initially flow well but slowly diminish the longer you leave it ? If so, open the cap and see if it improves (yes. blocked vent). If it is poor, suspect the tap is partially blocked. If it all seems ok then start searching further along the fuel's path to the carbs. Two things to check are, do you have an inline fuel filter that can't keep up or, do your carb vent hoses go into a common catch bottle and does it have some residual fuel/water in that the hoses are sitting in and thus stopping them working ? 1 Quote Link to comment
