Stalling

pkohlstedt · 09-25-2010, 11:00 AM

Leaving work the other day & bike kept stalling. It would go for a little while & stall again.The fi light was coming on & I would have to turn switch off & back on to get it to start.Finally got home & checked fuses, plugs & went for another ride - same thing. Then started searching the forum here & was thinking, uh oh fuel pump, ecu, going to be $$. The next day took the battery out & took apart the connector & blew them all out & blew some air through them gas cap vents. I went for another ride & it all better. MAybe the ground terminal was loose? Thats the 1st thing I'll check next time....wheww feels like i dodged an expensive bullet :)

Glad to hear you may have solved your problem. May have been a loose connection. It pays to keep a check on anything that can be tightened.

I hope you're right about a loose ground wire.

BUT, just in case, I thought I'd point you to a problem SDinkins had with his bike. - They symptoms sound similar -
