the guessing game...

ok, so i thought we can have a kinda fun mechanical based guessing game, we post a problem and people can try and guess what the problem is. then the poster after a while, lets people know what the problem was, will kinda work as a tutorial too
I will start:
just went to ride the cub and when it is in gear, it wont go backwards. will post results tomorrow
(if my back is up to the challenge!)

2014 Honda NSS300 Forza.
Dash lit up like a chirstmas tree.
Smoke from exhaust.
Cuts out every 90 seconds.

Go.

didn't know cub can go backwards

i mean i cant push it backwards, feels as if the brake is held in, but will push forwards fine...

Diesel.
The lights come on as a warning and the engine cuts out as a safety feature. If the engine cant burn it, it cuts out automatically. If you insist on the engine trying to run it smokes like hell.
THis has resulted in the ditzy blonde needing somebody (me) to replace the engine and most of the fuel lines

hahahaaa i had an aerox at work with diesel in it, was awesome to ride around making a wall of smoke....

Ill admit to having put a little diesel into one of my own bikes in the past.... only a bit, was able to weaken it down with petrol at the pump luckily. smoked like a mf all the way back though.
