Suzuki Bandit Leaking gas? |
I have a 98 suzuki bandit 1200 that somehow got flooded out with gas in the winter, so i got it fixed and all was well. Now just last week i got my bike on the road for the first day, rode it around for about 3 hours and it was ok, i parked it at work and about 4 hours later when i was about to start it the motor would crank and then just stop. so i finally got my bike started and the choke was not working the mechanism was fine it just wasent bringing up the revs, so i drove it home and parked it. the next morning i go in my garage and there is gas everywhere. this is the second time this has happened to me my bike is flooded with gas the airbox, the crank, everything. what should i do thanks Easygoing explained the problem. The shop you brought it to, may have cleaned the carbs, but didn't do a through job of adjusting / testing them. Bring it to another shop. Look in the fuel tank with a flash light. If you see any junk floating around, or rust on the walls of the tank, that's what's causing the problem. Junk is blocking the float needles from sealing closed to stop the gas flow to the carbs. After you clean and adjust the carbs again, install an in-line fuel filter. check the needle & seat in the carbies.. & the vacume tap in the petrol tank .. good site for carbie trouble shooting & setting here http://www.dansmc.com/mc_repaircourse.ht... 35 years riding & counting |
