christopher :

Hello how are you

Customer :

good you

christopher :

Give me a moment to gather some info

Customer :

hello

christopher :

Has the bike been sitting

christopher :

Have you checked for spark?

Customer :

ya only for a little while

christopher :

How long? Do you have spark on the dead cylinders

Customer :

yes got spark to all spark plugs first and second cylander runs but 3 4 dont got to have choke on and when you hit the gas it trys to die but if you munky with it it will rev up

Customer :

aboutr a mounth sence i owned it

christopher :

Ok one moment

christopher :

It sounds as though your issue is in the carbs. Debris build up and block the flow of fuel into the engine

christopher :

The will need to be removed and cleaned

Customer :

they allready were i forgot about that sry

christopher :

ok

christopher :

If the cylinders are getting spark and fuel that leaves us with a couple other possabilities

christopher :

Next step would be a compression test

Customer :

is that it if so noy satisfied

christopher :

I will look up the proper readings now brb

Customer :

got copresion the same all cylanders

christopher :

What was the readings.

Customer :

i cant rememder my dad did it and we looked in the book and they were just about perfect

christopher :

Remove the airbox lid and start the bike. Spray some starting fluid into the intake of the dead cylinder / cylinders, if you hear the cylinder pick up that tells us they are lacking fuel and the carbs were not properly cleaned

christopher :

What were the steps you took to clean yours

Customer :

ok will do that
