Title: Hard to start, Backfires, and Stalls. PLEASE HELP!
Post by: RonnieX on May 21, 2016, 09:20:43 AM

I'm trying to get my Super X back on the road after a long sitting. I cleaned the fuel injectors, put in fresh new gas, and a new battery. It now starts, but has trouble starting, backfires, and stalls. If I give it some throttle, it will stay running until it heats up, then it will stay running. But only until I get to the first stop sign, then stall. Where should I look First? it has Fresh new gas, the fuel line is clear, clean injectors. Is it a bad sensor??? PLEASE help, I want to RIDE!

RonnieX... Look for the rubber cap on top of the Throttle Body... If it has sat for a while, these damn things rot from age... It may be missing or wore out..A  smart X carries a spare under the left hand fuel cap along with a spare fuse or two...
