Hurricane gas issue
Hey there everyone, I just recently picked up a 87 hurricane. It runs and everything but does have some issues. First the cam chain tensioner, it is rattley, do I have to replace it? And also the guy I bought it from told me that the bike does die out on the highway when the gas is low. All he did was open and close the gascap. What would cause this? Breather tub? Vacuum pump? I'm at a loss. please help and thank you

Lol ya you're right, I'm just ready to take her out! Lol. And I will have to definitely look up to see how to make it a manual one.

Moved to the 1000F section - CCT rattle is common on these - if the rattle persists
after warm up - then it needs changing - if it ceases on warm up I'd hold off.
These 1000F's do not readily accept manual tensioners as they have hydraulic style
oil tensioners.
20/50 weight bike oil change can help
There's a breather pipe under the tank - check to see if it's blocked or kinked
Try reading a few threads on this page for some more info about similar problems
"search" button works well too.
