bought used bike was not started for 1 year i used carb cleaner and a top engine cleaner inside carbs. bike will run when shooting carb cleaner into air intake but will not run off the tank gas. i thouht maybe gas was stopping up tank valve but that does not seem to be the case by reading some info on this forum where would anyone here start this bike is a lot different than my 2000 f4. help is appreciated

 

Sounds like clogged pilot jets. The bike will run on carb clean in intake because that is bypassing the pilot jets. Take the float bowls off and the pilot jets and use a piece of wire from a steel wire brush and clean out the gunk from the jets.

 

do you know somewhere that i can get a good diagram on the break down of the carb i'm not that familiar with this and dont want to take apart and not be able to put back together

 

cleaned out carb and bike was running now it has shut off and will not start even with carb cleaner help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Did you check to make sure that the fuel was on? Is very thing hooked up correctly? It could be your petcock.
