So I had just bought a k100RT. It was advertised as a k100rs. But meh, I had bought the bike for $300. Wasn't running, all the wiring taken apart in the front, battery is missing, no air in front tire. Fuel cap won't come off either.
Here she is, Kelly.
So here is what I have done so far:
-checked the splines in the rear, they look like they still retain quite a bit of grease.
-spark plugs have spark and it seems like the coils are doing their job.
-havent checked compression because the spark plug threads are a different size.
-oil change. (this oil was BAD)
-Hooked up the battery wires to the car battery on my car and tried starting her up with fuel in the gas tank. No luck. So I sprayed a bit of starter fluid in the air box and she fired right up, but then died. So I know there is a fuel problem. but I am not sure what to check first guys!
So My questions are:
-What do I check first for my fuel issues
-What are these two tubes coming out of the gas tank?VVVV
