Problem to turn engine with el-start and kick.
I have a 87 mod and when I use the el-start it hardly cranks, way to slow to get it running. When I use the kick starter I use a lot of power to make it turn around, after some kicks it looses up and it`s like normal and the bike starts easy.
Any idea what`s wrong ? |
Weak or too small battery ??
Voltage loss through bad connections ?? Try it with a larger 12v battery hooked up with jump leads. |
Have new battery and have tried with a bigger, same problem.
It feel like i turn everything in the engine when I use the kick starter, and I use a lot of power to make it turn, after a few kicks it loosen up and it no resistance on the kick and it starts easily and runs normaly. |
You could check the starter clutch mechanism.
I'm not sure what system you have in there though. |
Clutch sticking, gasolin in the cylinder, never changed the engine oil, to much engine oil
|
your valves could be sticking...
Does the bike run at all? |
Hm, I have to check up the starter clutch, maybe something is stuck in there.
Should I take of the cover and have a look when I try to start ? Is there any springs that is pushing the gears in right position that I should look for ? |
Have you tried pulling in the clutch while you try to start the bike?
See if there is a difference & let us know. Mezo. |
It runs good, when it runs.
Will try and pull the clutch lever next time. |
