Bike Dying

[Dugan]

Just got my bike out after winter . Ran great when i winterized it . Drained all fuel in take and filled it back up . Now when I let off throttle to shift it dies only when i get back in the throttle . Not all the time but about 10 times in 10 miles in town . If you got and ideas please let me know.
By the way its a 08 Mutt 450 miles . Thanks

Did you run it when starting it with the enrichener on for a long time?

 

[Dugan]

No . I had it on until it started and then turned it off . It was pretty warm that day.

Might want to pull the bowl off and see if the flow is sticking. Could be some tarish material in there and filling fast enough.
Clean it out with some carb/brake cleaner and see what happens.

what did you do to winterize? use stabil or equal product in the fuel system? could be trash in the petcock filter blocking flow. just thinking, ray knows way more than i do.

I would change plugs also. Maybe just never get off the throttle? I would take carb off and clean it. Gas new? Sitting a few months really should not effect alot.

Took carb off cleaned it and changed the plugs . Plugs looked like hell . Way Fat Id say from the enrichener . I will ride it a few hundred miles this weekend and see how it goes.
