well i just picked up this non running bike theft recovery i fixed the ingition wiring and relaced the battery it cranks but wont start i used starting fluid and can get it to run for a little bit but then it dies so im thinking fuel prob the pump "spits every few seconds" so i dont know what else it could be

any help would be great
thanks

 

Why didn't you love me more as a child?!

 

cause you were ulgy

 

ok i got it started but if i rock the bike forward and back it dies but not if you rock it side to side

 

Firstly start using the full stop for your sentences.

Most probably your carbs need to be synchronized. What year is your bike?

 

its a 93 with about 14000miles.
also the water temp gauge doesnt seem to work but the fan comes on,and the bike just stops running after about 10minutes idling but the lights and all are still on

 

How long you been using her? Changed the plugs, filters, oil and so on?
Just to be sure its not a charging issue, check out the voltage output from the battery with a multimeter when you throttle her, the reading should show around 14v.

 

havn't yet just got her 2 days ago (theft recovery)she wasnt running when he got her back so the owner sold it to me
