i got a 172 typh with a 25mm carb and i have just fitted new accelerator cable and drive belt . i started it up run fine then left it over night and found it wouldnt start then stripped it down then just started then was riding it home from work then started coughing spluttering . and wouldnt go n e where . got it recovered home then put spark plug in it today runs better but still spluttering and pops ???? n e ideas
oh shit i hope it aint spent enough on it this month lol . i reckon its fuelling but it will go like stink one sec then start popping and spluttering then go like stink ?????
just quick update for future think i may have soughted it . the lead from the coil to the plug was loose at the coil ???? it runs perfect after i put that on and off ????
You realise those plugs screw in. They have a self tapper built in so, screw it in until its really tight and it wpnt fall out again. Although im beginning to think its a common problem now considering my plug fell out aswell.
last time i was racing we had a prob wiht the coil/cdi cable (the single cable with the spade connectors) unfortunatly it was fine, then get it on the strip and lights go green, bike died. was FUCKING annoying (especially as i ddint have any spades on me) got it sorted, but ye, common prob. (fires bike, althop it wasent his then.. im sure the dwarf boys will remember) had me guessing like mad for a bit tho (racing is funny like that, had a bike in bits as it died on the strip, then realised the owner thought a bit of fuel would harm his time so put neer on fuck all in there... silly mistakes)
lol yh i think it should be ok now just went and started it and gave it a rode seems ok . hope it is in future lol
Saw a bike do that on the mobile dyno wagon at Mersea one year. This tuned Lammy just died half way through a run. Ran out of petrol :w00t:
