  1. Hi,

    Im new to the forum having just picked up my italian import TDR today. Not the worlds biggest, best, or fastest bike i know, but it suits me. The problem i have is that it runs when you put a brand new spark plug in then after a short while it cuts out and will not go again. This is what the previous owner told me anyway, i haven't had a chance to test it yet. I have taken the carb off to clean it but can't make head or tail of it. I could just put it back together but would kinda rather have a clue why it goes together in the way it does, so what i need is a diagram or some kind of advice on the delorto carb which was made for this bike? Also i could do with a wiring diagram. i'd love to go out and buy myself a haynes manual for it but i cant find one anywhere!!! Any help would be massively appreciated.

    Thanks

    Matt

    have you tried ebay for a manual

  2. i've bought a new wiring loom expensive but worth it if it starts, will let you know the outcome

    finally got the wee bike started after fitting a new loom, infact even to my surprise it fired on 2nd kick, not long till im on the road. thanks all for their help.

    :P

  3. i doubt it will be this but if you have had to redo the wiring there maybe a problem with the ignition mine was the same, i have to kick it and turn the key to the "on" at the same time as kicking and it fires up firse time but if i dont theres a spark ect but wont fire.

  4. Have you tried rolling it to start?

    Not tried yet but shall do, im assuming if its sparking the the timing side of things are ok, and the plug is wet after a session of kicking so its petting fuel, im stuck to why its not firing up.

    thanks
