hello gs world. i just recently brought a 1982 gs1100g. It has 14,000 miles on it the previous owner had let it sit for 4 yrs. He sold it to me for $400 dollars. he told me that the tank was empty when he put it up and the bile was run till it stopped when he put it up for the winter. I checked the carb bowls, they were clean and looked exceptionally well. I changed all the fluids and put on new fuel lines. checked the spark plugs. all looked good . the petcock was frozen and the fuel line portion was missing. I took the tank off and pored gass in the new gass line.till i could not put no more in. Hit the starter and it turned over a couple times and it started. Ran fine. i reved it up and it started cutting out out at around 3400 rpms. I put more fuel in the line and tried it again. It cut right off. i checked the floats and tey all were at 22mms I thought the points were possable fouled but some one had allready changed them to eletronic. the plug wires are 8mm and the coils are axcells. it all seams to be fireing well. am i missing an advance on the bike and where is it. or is there something else i could be missing?
