    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

hehehee

Couple days ago, thought I would give another go round with the hard starting of my GS650GLZ. I have had some suspicion of late that my ignition may be causing some of the problem. The suspicion is mainly due to me grabbing a hold of the #3 plug boot in one hand while holding the clutch in with the other, and becoming the path of least resistance...I guess the coils are still good!!!! Anyway, I thought I would disassemble, and give the boots a coke-cola bath. let them soak a couple of days, cleaned up nice. I put them back on the bike, still hard to start...hmmmmm. Grabbed a screwdriver, grounded it to the boots, and got spark to jump from the tip to the engine. I got almost an 1/4 of an inch on Cyl #2! I also managed to kill the engine this way... Needless to say, I have 4 more on order. Spendy little buggers too. 40 bucks for all four. So...Moral of the story, check the ignition system out before assuming there is a carb problem ( I know its been posted before...).
 
Ya, I know...But I'm getting Genuine Suzuki, instead of the NKG. Wasn't sure they would work, and I'm too far from my dealer to pop in any old time and check the NKG's out. Thanks for the link though. I bookmarked it for future reference

The Suzuki stuff probably is NGK, possibly ND.
