I've had my bike running for about 4 days. It's been running great until last night. Every 3 minutes air bubbles would start to form in the fuel line. They appeared to be coming from the engine up to the tank. The Engine would rev way up and then die. I would take off the tank cap to relieve pressure and fuel would flow back down into the fuel line.
I called dax and he thinks that it's percolating. That my engine's running hot and percolating the fuel I guess. He said add more oil to the mixture. It was 46 degrees outside though. That should have helped keep it cool.
Although, this last tank I used Premium gasoline rather than regular. Maybe that would be part of the problem too?? Only thing is, I ran through 1/3 of that premium tank before the problem started.
Should the tank caps be letting more air in or are they supposed to do that at all? Maybe I have gas in my cap that is stuck in there and blocking the air???
Any ideas????
