    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.

Hi Folks!!!

My GS 650 MD only starts in the cold with full choke and injecting some drops of fuel through the plug holes (4).
If I try to start it without this procedure, the engine starts only for 2 or 3 seconds and dies suddenly. :(
After this, it is a waste of time to try to start the engine again, without the "manual injection".

Battery is full charge.
Spark plugs are new, and cleaned.
The coils have a blue spark in all cilinders (4).
Carbs have been cleaned and synch...or my mechanic has forgotten something?

Do I need to check the carbs for a clogged circuit or an air/fuel leaking?
I don?t really know what to do!!!!!!! :-k
I?m very bored about this every day ritual , before and after going to work . :evil:

Eliseo.
 
if this is something new for the bike it is sounds like a carb rebuild /cleaning is in order. if this is something it has done all along then it sounds like a good candidate for a jet kit .imho Mark
 
It definitely needs some carb attention Eliseo. I'll bet your enrichner((choke circuit)) is not operating. Do you have a repair manual to see if it is at least connected to the choke cable.

Dom :

The choke cable it is working properly and the starter shaft slides softly.
Maybe my carbs, have an internal problem.
Suzuki service manual, doesn?t have a good information about the starter circuit; so I don?t know how to enrich the mixture.
But, when the engine is warm, it is possible to acelerate pulling the choke lever. :roll:
