Help Me Please...

[rappy'97]

Okay... I stalled my bike while riding it yesterday afternoon. I pushed it home a mile or so... because the battery went dead. I got a new battery, since I have been having battery troubles for awhile now. Installed battery, I washed it, and it wouldnt start. I started going through it, sorting it out to find the problem, found a blow fuse... installed a new fuse. It will turn over, and turn over. But it wont fire up!?!?!?! HELP ME PLEASE!!! I would realy like it to run by tonight since I have a riding trip tonight and throughout the weekend. Thanks

does it just click

 

[rappy'97]

No, it rolls over... it just wont fire up and start!?!?!?!? Just checked... no spark

 

[beastlywarrior228]

wow is the battery hooked up right

 

[rappy'97]

Yes, it rolls over. It seems to not be getting fuel.

Is it not sparking or not getting fuel?

 

[rappy'97]

Well.... I know it isnt getting spark. I didnt realize that I said it wasnt getting fuel. Sorry for the confusing. No spark.

Coil? Get the multi-meter out and starts testing stuff. (Coil and stator)

What was it?

Probably fouled up spark plug from the looks if it. Doesn't black mean rich?

 

[dirtrider73068]

Black and sooty is rich.

 

[rappy'97]

Wow, thats weird. If anything, I would think it should be lean, I have a modded air box? And yes, it was the plug, fired right up once I put the other one it! Also, I would like to thank Blue Lighting for all the help!!!

Watch that new plug and make sure its not fouling out, might take a couple extra in your pocket and tools to replace them on the ride if they foul out again and leave you sitting. If its rich fouled need to find out why, as one you will run through more fuel than normal and second its not good to run rich it can wash down the cylinders.

that plug is a little rich but not enough to foul it IMO. I would check your coil out like dead said you could have a bad wire and movemant made it work again (temporarly). Better just to make sure so your not left stranded somewhere

 

[dirtrider73068]

Or its got a weak spark and putting in a new plug its able to make the weak spark a little better to fire, that used plug could have been enough to stop the weak spark.

Weak spark.........humm. Imagine that issue.
