Motor Vehicle Maintenance & Repair Asked by Kautuk Thakur on December 12, 2020
Bike stops suddenly when in ON position. Removed the fuel line from petcock to carburetor and saw that not enough fuel is coming in ON position. Changed the petcock, cleaned the tank from inside, but the problem still persists. What to do?
If the issue is insufficient fuel flow*, these two possibilities also suggest themselves:
a) There is frequently a fine-wire screen inside the tank, or inside the petcock, to prevent dirt and grit from passing through the petcock and thence to the carburetor. Drain the tank, remove the petcock, and inspect carefully. If such a screen or filter is present, clean or replace it.
b) The fuel line between the petcock and the carburetor may be internally blocked or partially blocked. I would replace the line to ensure that it is completely open.
