Is the engine stop relay working? How about the fuel pump? You should get a 5 second burst of power to the pump with key on, then it should run...
These are from my 5G service manual but I'm sure will be the same on the 6G. I believe you are correct that the tipover switch provides a path to...
The engine stop sensor aka tipover switch needs to be functional or jumpered between the white/black and orange/red wires. It provides power to...
I would start with the assumption that the battery is kaput. In my experience they can have enough resting voltage to fool a battery charger into...
The fluttering noise could be the solenoid for the flapper valve, if the clutch switch is making intermittent contact. I hear this sometimes...
Clock resetting is often caused by a battery near the end of its life. For me it happened more on a hot restart than a cold start. Can you...
In my own experience these tend to drift out of whack very slowly, and have an impact mainly on steadiness of idle and off-idle smoothness....
I low-sided my 5G 2 years ago, and rashed up the nose, right side and tail cowls. I bought replacements from Auctmarts on eBay, sent them a piece...
The idle adjuster screw pushes in on the start valve lifter plate; the screw is just a plain steel screw with a spring and bushing to keep it from...
The PAIR function is to allow clean air from the airbox to be sucked into the exhaust header to help burn off any remaining hydrocarbons, to lower...
You're a cruel man, Pete. When do we get to see the bike with its new fancy clothes on?
This sounds probably normal to me. Not exactly sure about the 8G but on the 5 and 6, the flapper is kept open at all revs in neutral, and only...
Getting a bike up on the centre stand is easier if the bike is standing taller/rear wheel is closer to the ground when up on the stand. I found...
You can check the fan operation by pulling the female spade terminal off the back of the thermoswitch, and jumpering it to a good ground point....
That's hardly "I was standing on a corner in Winslow Arizona" is it?
No mention of the PCX here, apparently you need something called a Hummer or Corvette (whatever those are). [MEDIA]
It's been some time since I owned a VF750 (more than 30 years) but I recall the two forks are linked by an air tube under the triple clamp. ATF...
Hi Jim, been there, done that. You are hearing the electrical solenoid that drives the vacuum for the flapper valve cycling on/off. For whatever...
