Hello to all,
The saga of my non-starting K100 continues...
The story so far is:
I rode the back some time ago. It ran fine. The next time I tried it, no joy.
Since then I have inspected and cleaned/serviced/inspected various bits. Back together today and this is how it went:
The fuel pump runs, the bike starter motor engages, the engine fires for half a second and then dies - so back to square 1.
If the fuel pump is working fine, what can cause the engine to fire for a split second then die?
Is it likely to be: fuel injection control unit, CDI, relays? Mechanical (ie starter clutch system)????? Other?
Any contributions more than welcome as I am stumped by this.
Best to all,
Neal
