Hi,
So i bought this bike off a man who said the petcock needed to be replaced. He also said it had not been taken out for a year or so. I bought a new battery and cleaned the petcock.
When i opened the petcock a found the the rubber diaphragm was broken, but i figured that if the diaphragm is broken then gas will flow freely from the gas tank, right?
Put a little gas in it just to see if i could get it start. engine turns over and but won't start, every once in awhile (every 5 secs or so) you hear a little kick like it wants to start but doesn't.
Do i have to replace the diaphragm to get it to start? or might i have another problem. Thanks in advance!!
