What causes a motorcycle not to idle?
Carbon, oil residue and pitting on the spark plug electrodes will cause a weak or inconsistent spark, resulting in poor ignition and an inconsistent idle. A clogged air filter may not allow a sufficient amount of air into the combustion chamber, contributing to a rough idle.
What’s the idle speed on a Yamaha bike?
The bike hasn’t been running to my knowledge for 4-5 months. Prior to my purchase the previous owner, a friend, said he cleaned the carbs. Basically, she’ll start up fine and idle around 1500-2000 rpm (full choke) but upon going to 1/2 choke or giving her any throttle, she dies.
What to do if your bike Idles when trying to accelerate?
Clean the carb,run some sea foam through it,if that doesn’t work,try your timing.if all else fails it could be a sticky valve and or a bent valve ( I ran a bike on a bent valve for 2 months before it blew) How do you check the valves. I’m not a mechanic but I can do the small stuff. Lol I have a 89 warrior. I put it in the shed during deer season.
Why does my motorcycle engine stall when warm?
And the problem is often worse on a hot day. The dreaded stalling issue when the engine is warm is the most common idle problem and it is mostly related to the very lean air/fuel ratio on the modern fuel injected motorcycle engine. Why does my motorcycle stall at idle when the engine is warmed up and at operating temperature ? – Low compression.
What happens to the engine when you give it gas?
When you give it gas does it bog down really bad or does it kill the engine? Click to expand… It just dies.
Why does my bike lose power when I idle?
Again, if you ride a modern bike you’ll have no idea what a choke is, but even Electronically Fuel Injected motorcycles reveal a lot by “blipping” the throttle. Rich bikes are getting too much gas, so they idle high but lose power when given initial throttle because they can’t burn all the gas.
What to do if your bike Idles but bogs with throttle?
I will look during tomorrow times. If it idles fine but it bogs down with throttle, your high speed gas jet is probably clogged. Clean your carb and spray carb cleaner in all small passages, make sure air can flow through all ports no matter how small. Put it back together and it should run great.
How can I Make my Bike idle perfectly?
Pull the carb bowls off. Pull the jets and clean them til you can see perfectly through them. Use carb cleaner, and compressed air or my favorite a few strands of stripped electrical wire to push all the gunk out of em. TPS sees fuel going in and compensates, but compensates for nothing.
