Maybe i got lucky

GREY NINJA · September 19th, 2012, 05:30 PM

WELL I PURCHASE MY 2002 NINJA 250 AROUND THREE WEEKS AGO AND HAD IT BROUGHT TO ME ON A PICK-UP TRUCK. I PARKED IT FOR THREE DAYS THEN WHEN I WENT TO START IT WITH THE CHOKE ON IT RAN FINE BUT WHEN I CLOSED THE CHOKE IT WOULD STOP RUNNING OVER AND OVER. ON DAY TWO SAME THING (

I HOPE THE MAD FACE CAME OUT) SO ON DAY THREE I ADDED THIS THING CALLED """SEA FOAM""" (I HEARD FROM THIS FORUM SOMEWHERE) AND JUST DROVE THE BIKE (SHABBY AT FIRST) BUT AFTER A TANK(TWO DAYS OF DRIVING) IT STARTED TO RUN NORMAL-----GRRRRREAT, I DID HAVE TO MESS WITH A BLACK KNOB ON THE LEFT SIDE A LITTLE--THE POINT IS SEA FOAM MIGHT BE THE ANSWER WHEN YOU HAVE I BAD IDLE OR WITH NO CHOKE THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF

Sounds like the carbs could be gummed up happened to my pregen when I had it. I also took my tank off and emptied it and cleaned it out. Sea foam helped but I would def get the carbs cleaned.

I THINK YOU YELLING AT THE BIKE SCARED IT INTO WORKING AGAIN

Maybe you could put some seafoam in your keyboard as well, i think your caps lock key is broken!
