while troubleshooting an intermitant stalling issue we came across a fuel line rubbing on the frame where the fuel line comes from the injector and goes up to the pump. about 2" up from the injector the line runs next to the frame, and it appears that the coil plug wire has a rubber tab that may be is supposed to protect it from the frame. The bike has about 1400 miles on it and the line has some serious wear. it looks like over time it would be a hole. Ended up wrapping a piece of rubber around it to protect it. Will attach pics if allowed.

Good you found that , it certainly would have happened, what you did will work perfectly fine, you might look around and see if it came from the factory that way or has been shuffled around from riding, if the latter see if you can get it back in the original position.

It “looks” like it came that way factory. The line is shaped so it lays that way naturally. Also the coil wire has a little tab on it that maybe the intent is to shield or block the fuel line from rubbing. And it probably would work if the tab were longer.   Anyway, something to be aware of. At least the line is not over the hot exhaust.  Lol

      Hi all. I have a timberwolf 250 2nd that will not start.. I thought it was out of time bc the guy I got it from said it just quit on him. The tensioner had a nut welded to it and it was like2 teeth off. I installed new tensioner and chain and it still will not start. It has fire and it will not hit off brake cleaner. It has compression. Haven't put a gauge but I'm sure it will crank and run with what it has. I double checked my work and it's still in time. Spot on. Both valves move. I'm about to put a feeler gauge on them and I'll cone back but other than that any ideas?

      Hi all,
      Looking for some help on a starter/bendix issue. Can Am outlander 450 2017. While cranking to start, the starter spins and engages into the ring gear. After a few seconds the bendix retracts while still spinning and there is no damaged teeth on the drive pulley.

      on my honda trx 500 we have no power to the ignition switch for starting or ignition
      we have lights and horn working
      all fuses are fine
      have traced through the harness and cant find any broken wires or bad connections
      from what we have gathered so far the pgm fi unit is not sending any power to the fuel pump relay to power everything up.
      if we put power direct to the ignition switch plug then everything works but wth the key in the off position.
      does this sound like a faulty pgm fi unit?

      I recently purchased a raptor 80 for my grandson for  christmas. I am trying to make sure it is running properly. i have rebuilt the carb and adjusted the carb idle then the mixture to middle of where it runs rough and it runs great for about a min or 2. then it stalls out. I can usually choke it and it will start so i feel it is lacking fuel. the fuel shutoff valve has been changed and i checked it for good fuel flow.  any ideas of what to check next. I am planning to vfy fuel float height tomorrow. I visually checked it by turning carb upside down when i had it apart and it looked level. any ideas are appreciated. 
       
      Thanks.

      Hello everyone, I have a 92 honda trx350 I just picked up that has a bent section of the frame where the rear of the seat would clip into place. It almost looks like a tree or something heavy fell on it. Its a fairly deep bend, if that makes sense. It like a V instead of straight. What are peoples goto methods for straightening a section like that?
