Airhead

Greetings kelzi no doubt the bike has a vacuum operated fuel tap, the 2nd pipe (vacuum) will plug onto a spigot somewhere on the engine side of the carb throttle valve (slide), thus when the engine is running...vacuum is created and this in turn opens the fuel flow to the carb. as for the overflowing perhaps the carburettor float valve has jammed, initially try tapping the carb with the wooden stock of a hammer...I said 'tapping'

well thats a great help Jim

Ahh its never going to fly with a guy your size but if you check the ignition timing, keep the exhaust de-carbonised and a clean air filter you wont go far wrong, they are a great little fun bike scooter...enjoy..up yours is just having a laugh and hes showing off because he did lose a lot of weight and thereby made his LC faster

yean an intro in 'New Members' its good manners you see, rather than here I am fix my bike!

yeah just buy a yamaha one

greetings rick, be nice to see it as was and as is

you can test the pump if youre not sure, pull the pipe from the carb or manifold, block off the spigot with something (not bluetac etc) maybe a pice of tape. start the bike and allow it to idle, turn the pump puuey by hand to max a see if the oil pulses out of the pipe, is the oil clean? how about the 'Intro' Dan?

theres a sight glass, bike upright and engine cold, halfway is good

yeah keep filling, running, draining etc and eventually the water should be clean, only then drain a last time and fill with de-ionised (distilled) water and anti-freeze solution...winters coming . In the shrt term keep an eye on the level in the radiator when its cold untill you have some confidence in it. Tip, when filling a drained system keep squeezing (pumping) any exposed rubber hoses to expel air and reduce the chances of airlocks

i dont think water in the tank should be all that hot, hard to say but its only an expansion tank!! beware if it gets hot as you say, blown head gasket can do that trust in the light, it either works or doesnt, if it says hot it is hot and theres a reason for it

the tank wont get hot Dan, let it all cool and check the level in the radiator if you can...must be cold though!

yes in the centre Pete, you may find some flats on the insisde of the forklegs, use calipers to measure to the rim edge.. you would be best measuring the offset of each wheel though first

an intro would be good, this is more often than not a discharged battery, re-charge it. if it then works but fails soon after replace it

greetings Ruby, keep it clean and serviced, look after the chain adjustment and lube and most of all yourself

thats lucky, might have taken longer without the prior knowlege, incidentally you may know this but disconnecting the ig switch would have given you a spark

youll need new oil, a new cover gasket and the plates, try wemoto. you shouldnt have any trouble if you have some know how, Take care with the plain plates they sometimes need to put in...in a certain order around the basket to achieve balance...or vibration will occur, try wemoto for your parts of course you need a little slack in your cable before you delve this deeply

haha

doesnt work

well done NEO

Greetings Roy, is it fuel injected, does it have a manual choke...not familiar

Greetings Ami welcome to the fraternity, lets hope for a few more nice days before the weather changes eh, make the most of it...

please use this forum for intros chippy, let the problems come later

Greetings milan, how do you compare the DTR and WR ?

where does this info TI/TL32 come from? mr Haynes has it as TM28SS code 3RM02 for 1999 to 2003

if the problem is pressurisation due to sunlight why not open the filler cap to release it? I know it isnt a cure but it may be a fix if you are in a fix!...better than a wet towel in your pocket lol. come to think of it, perhaps you should be questioning your tank venting capabilities
