Can you tell me what the issue is with your bike lol.. I'm kinda lost but want to help. Is it the fuel petcock that needs to be located or something else? Also, when your bike cranked, how long did it stay started and what did it do when it died?

 

it runs fine, it died at first cuz i took the choke off to soon. but i let it run with choke and slowly turned choke off and it stayed running once it was warmer. i think the reason it wouldnt start b4 was because it wasnt getting enuf fuel. because it only started once i cracked the fuel cap open, and i got it to crank by jumping the starter solenoid with a screw driver. so that needs to be replaced. is there a valve that lets air into the tank? because i dont wanna be driving it with the cap cracked open. but thats the only was it will run.

 

Sounds like maybe you have a vacuum issue? I would double check the lines from the tank as riding with you gas cap open is not an option

 

there is only 1 line from the tank. thats what i think the problem is it dosnt have the petcock. there is a fitting in the center on bottom for a hole but nothings hooked up to it

 

hose**

 

and the fitting in the center looks plugged up

 

It prob is. I'd double check the underside of other tanks the same model and see how they are configured if possible. One way, would be to look at the service manual for your bike and see the diagram

 

Iv been looking through the manual and nothing so farr but ill probably find something. In the meanwial I don't have another tank to look at. So if anyonne on here with a f1 wants to chime in with some pics it be great.

 

okay, i looked through the entire service manual and found nothing. andone wanny tell me how vacumm or any hoses going to the tank are hooked up?
