Hey everyone, Happy New year!
I have been reading a million posts here and have been fiddling around with my 85 k100 and the frustration is growing...
The bike would initially cut out while riding and sometimes not start for a bit.
I started with replacing the fuel pump connector with the extra from the electrical box used for the alarm.
No change
Replaced the fuel
No change
Replaced all of the fuel lines
No change
Replaced the sparkplugs (and found shitty corrosion on the leads and cleaned with custom made tool and reinstalled)
No change
Replaced the fuel injectors $$ ugh!
No change
Replaced the fuel filter
No change
Checked the operation of the air valve, free and clear
I just tried to go for a ride and made it 4 blocks and had to start it 5-6 times. I was hoping it was just because there was air in the filter or something... but 20 mins later after pushing the bike home it doesn't seem to be the case.
My last step is replacing the fuel pressure regulator, but since they don't have any equivalents in stock here at the NAPA... I'm looking for some help
I've read up and down on this forum (BTW is there a sophisticated search tool I'm missing?) and followed every suggestion that seemed to be similar.
Thank you!!!!
