    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

so i found that the gasoline was somehow mixed with the oil and i drained it and changed the oil filter it runs fine now BUT the starter something or whatever that produces the spark is irregular and i have a hard time starting it because of it. is there another way to start the bike or do i just need to replace the part?
 
Hi,

Have you looked at the spark?

A faulty petcock combined with faulty float needle seal will cause gas to get into your oil. Have you addressed those issues yet? In other words, a new petcock and a complete carb clean and rebuild.

Thank you for your indulgence,

Listen to Cliff, he is a wise man. Also, sounds like you need new plugs.

Dyna S kit is about $120 at Z1 Enterprises. I don't think they list your model on the application chart but a few members around here have fit them. Doing a search should uncover some pertinent information.
