Bike dies on uphill.
Bike dies on uphill.
I rode an enduro this weekend. Was by far the fastest quad around. Only problem was that there was two sections where you had to go up a mountain. As I got half way up the bike started to stutter and then die. Wouldnt start again. I left it for a few minutes and went down the hill and started it then. The second time it did the same up the hill. In the staights I get top reffs in fifth gear and no problem. What could be the problem. I installed a bit bigger petrol pump as i couldnt find the original pump in South Africa. Can it be that the pump dont get enough fuel under torque?

For the Old style tanks which you have there is also a bulletin in which you reroute the hose going to the back of tank to the side of the motor rather than over the head in an attempt to get rid of vaporlock problems.This could also be what is happening,fuel filter,diconnect leaking air in or not connected all the way or the screen in tank on top of back fitting also.
Ok Thanks. This is a good tip of which I didnt know. I will reroute the tube. Just expain what you said in a bit more detail. I dont fully understand
