cut out in wet and wont start

Right i was recenty caught out in the rain on my typh125 which has a open fillter it bogged and cut out because the filter got wet.
I cant get it started now i dryed air filter put new plug in i also changed the reeds in the polini evo reedblock as they didnt look like they were sealing and now she still wont start.
Ive got a spark and tryed removeing the loom plug to check if it was a loom problem and it didnt work. I havent got a clue what it would be now and i need the bike for college on tuesday so any help would be great.
Cheers Andy.

 

Have you checked the carb?

 

yep i cleaned the carb out with easy start hmm maybe i should get carb cleaner. ive been told the oil seals could have gone what is the posibility of this happening

 

yeah, water in float bowl.

 

yea cleaned float bowl etc this morning will check the earth point in a few mins and report back

 

failing that, spray everything to do with the ignition with WD40. HT lead, cap, coil, wiring from the coil. drives out water

 

well i was checking the earth point and what did i see on the pm pipe a crack around the weld nearly all the way round it must of happend when we loaded it on the trailer so i have to get that welded tomoro and see if the bike works after now for today ill fix the little anoying bits and polish her up

 

also change plug.

water fucks them up.

 

kyle go to specsavers fella said i tryed new plug in 1st post

 

:w00t:

 

got the pm55 welded today and its starts ok had a air leak at first but sorted now just one thing it has a 21mm delorto on it and i dont know what to set the mixture screw at anyone know

 

i was told by wobbly that the bike should of started with the exhaust problem but now she hardly starts and cuts out alot so i am thinking i have low compression.
It started and rode the other day its just hard to start and didnt want to start when i filled up with petrol so i had to push it home soo what does anyone think it sounds like low compression? im realy confused and just need it working to get to work on whilst i build my next engine

 

possibly, i would check it and also question your crank seals too

 

hmm might just build my ported lump hmm how do i check crank seals or is it just replace and try out

 

will be wet patches around them.

 

ok ill give them a check

 

hmm could it still be that i did take it for a long ish ride
