Posted June 10, 201410 yr Hello all, Just got this yzf-600 and could use some advise on troubleshooting. It starts and runs as long as I keep the rpm's up. when it warns up I let it idle down and it dies. It won't start until it sits awhile. Can anyone point me in the right direction to resolve or check to narrow down the problem? no repair shops close to me.
June 11, 201410 yr Moderator Clean fuel, fuel tank, fuel pump and carbs, air filter would be where I would start.
June 11, 201410 yr Author Thanks, I've already started on the carbs and they are full of trash. I'll clean the bowls and jets the fuel pump and tank I've done so I hope this solves the problem.
June 15, 201410 yr Author Ok, Cleaned the carbs and runs good if I give it gas but won't idle. Any suggestions
June 16, 201410 yr Author Yes, the secondary coil wires were crossed and the pilot jets needed a second cleaning. She is slowly coming back to life will keep posting progress and any problems I run into. I appreciate all the advise I received from members and look forward for more. Thanks Tim in Texas
June 16, 201410 yr Moderator You need to make sure that the carbs are really clean and set up correctly. The pilot jet controls the fuel at idle. What condition is the air filter?
June 16, 201410 yr Author She screams like an eagle, a little cosmetic work and a good bath and we'll be hitting the wind. It pays to have a repair manual and good advise. Thanks again, Tim
