2 Strokes Down Under

Hi,

Haven't posted here in a while, been trying to get the bike going

It runs, but then again it doesn't...

The bike had not been ridden for some months.

I have siphoned the fuel out and filled with 10L of shell 98.

It starts fine on choke, but periodically cuts out, if i push choke back in, it will run for a bit then start do drop[ in revs till it dies. if i quickly pull the choke back out the revs lift again.

Now, that said, even if the choke is out it will still eventually drop and die...

I do not know what to do, i have exhausted my knowledge....

It seems that the bike is only running on the right cylinder, but im not 100%

im going to get new plugs and try again...

Any ideas?

Adam

Fuel lines or carbs ??
Sounds like spark isnt the issue, but air / fuel mixture.
Clean out both possibly ?

It seems to be getting fuel,

I drained the float bowls after the last run and there was fuel in there... i might pull the carbies off tomorrow and give them a good clean...

Adam

what bike is it i know the rz carbs are annoying for this when the carbs are all gummed up inside, cleaning the pilot jets and a service really helps as the pilot jets are so tiny

Clean the carbs, just because there is fuel in there doesnt mean it can get out.

Well,

It's fixed

Took the carbs apart, cleaned them. Replaced the plugs, and re-ran some new fuel lines

Runs quite well now

However, the right exhaust pipe sounds louder than the left?

What is up with that?

Adam

Do you leave it on the side stand all the time, or use the center stand ?

Side stand. Oil in exhaust? The baffles have been removed as well.
