trickedcarbine Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 see if your plugs are fouled or wet.. if they are dry youre not getting any fuel of course. Try loosening the plugs and spraying some starting fluid or carb spray and see it will start..Horrendous advise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FasterThanU90 Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 every seems to agree and disagree .. on brand new engines i have used a tiny bit of carb spray through the plug hole to get the carbs primed. A one second spray really aint shit. Thats a very small amount of atomized liquid. ..It is strong and yes it can strip off oil from what it contacts. i have never had a problem..before assembly i have coated everything with oil like the piston, piston pin, crank shaft ends and cylinder wall. Im confident everything is lubricated. Some have used it with causing no damage at all and some have had bad experience with it.. read the directions on the can. All my bikes r on alky. On a cold or Hell even cool day sometimes it will not start without it. I have never had a prob. I have herd stories of peps just blasting it in there and washing down the cylinder and cause some scaring. But that has never happened to me Skip Zero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FasterThanU90 Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) some brands of starting fluid have upper cylinder lubricants like GUMOUT. Yamaha sells a product called Fogging Oil and engines can run on that alone.. Edited February 22, 2016 by FasterThanU90 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
