Title: STOPPED RUNNING.....HELP!!
Post by: Bil Maga on June 01, 2005, 06:13:36 PM
Hey all, I just purchased my 2002 GS500K2, and I already screwed it up! I replaced the handle bars, and then took off the gas tank to replace the filter with a K & N, and when i put everything together again, it stopped working. I need HELP!!!!! :dunno:

Ok, stopped working?
Not turning over - no electrical?
not firing up - not getting fuel or spark but starter is working?


If you hit start and you have it in the run position and there is nothing, check your neutral safety switch to make sure you hooked it back up

If the starter is spinning but its not turning over, double check the fuel hose routing to make sure you hooked it back up right

the hose routing can be found in the forum

if that is all correct then make sure you didnt flood it. pull the plugs and make sure they are not gas fowled. if so, dry and clean them. Stick them back in and see what you have.

Check the petcock on the tank and the one on the frame.
