WILLY THE WORT My Rides (3) Posted May 14, 2013 Normal. It ran on the fuel in the float bowl. NEVER NEVER leave your gas petcock on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KTMrideR146 Posted May 14, 2013 (edited) so do i just leave it now ? when i tried to start it all it done was splutter and stop again .. is there a way to get everything back to normal just keep trying to start it. every dirt biker, and i mean EVERY has done this too many times to count by mistake. it causes no harm wat so ever. If ur having a problem starting it, try turning the gas on, lean ur bike over until gas drips out of the overflow (tubes on connected to the carberatur). then stand the bike up and try starting it again. First try using the choke, actually, and if that doesnt work then perform above steps Edited May 14, 2013 by KTMrideR146 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazyman2 Posted May 14, 2013 I didnt do it that way but i ran the bike dry i filled the tank back up leaned it little to makes sure the bowl was filled and gave it a kick and fired right up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
