Chain problem

<< < (11/13) > >>

El__burro:
thanks, i've read it before about the 20mm play.
unfortunately, the bike seems to have a problem, the engine struggles to go even at idle.
i've looked into the tank and it is full of bits (looks like rust) could it be carburettor?

thanks

mike the bike:
I had a 400four tank that had rusted inside the tank.  There was hardly any fuel coming out of the tap because the filter was blocked.   Worth checking.

hairygit:
Could be, but before you go ripping the carbs apart, it may be the internal filter in the fuel tap. You need to drain the tank and flush it out first, then when it is clean, check the fuel tap filter. If running doesn't improve after that, then it's time to strip and clean out the carbs

mike the bike:
That's the filter I was referring to.   When I pulled the fuel hose off the tap, not much fuel came out.

El__burro:
Removed the fuel tap (and destroyed it) emptied the tank, fuel is very dirty with a lots of these dark balls (of rust i guess).
I have flushed the tank a few times but now I need to replace the part in the tap.
Any idea where to shop for it?

Regards
El__Burro
