fleury_xlt Posted September 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 My intake boots are brand new ! Can a clogged main jet on the carburator should be the problem ? I don't have any fuel filter ?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrMeyer Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 pop the rad cap and look inside and see if it needs to be cleaned out. While you are there. Start the motor and see if you can see the water moving around min the vibrations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrMeyer Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 probably. what were you doing running without a filter??? i understand if it was still in the shop and whatever. but ya i would clean it out I dont run any of my bike with fuel filters and have never had a prob. I also use painter screens when im out at the dunes to help keep sand from falling/blowing in. If it can pass the filter in the tank then it deserves to get to the carbs.
