Please can anyone help, I have just bought a very clean 93 XJ600 with 18000 on the clock, the problem I have is when first started from cold pot 3 will not fire until engine is well warmed up, after this runs perfectly. The bike has seen very little use over the past few years and has been stood a while unused, if this is any clue.

Many thanks for any help

possibly some sort of carb/fueling fault, i suggest you give the carbs a good clean out and use fresh fuel, see if that cures your problem

Hi There,

wild fomey is correct with a carb fault but I suggest you look at the progression tunnels/holes and the choke tube on carb 3 but as I no nothing .. check the underside .... someone else will give you better advice
