Hey guys.
I've used seafoam as a fuel additive in the past and it's worked great for me. I know there are a few other uses such as adding it in the oil a few miles (~100) before the next oil change and adding it directly into the fuel pump.
I was wondering if anyone else can chime in on...
Ok. Some of the bikers in my city have been posting on our citys sport biker Facebook page that "if you store your bike with regular fuel in it, it's not good. Even with stabilizer!"
Now I've been storing my bikes for years with regular fuel and stabilizer and have had no problems.
Whats...
Hey Guys been busy with the bike got some bad gas and fried a plug or two. Anyways got the plugs changed, drained the radiator while I was in there and I also pulled a wire out while I was draining the tank it fell and pulled it loose from the plug at the bottom of the tank. Everything runs...
Hey everyone! I'm new here. I recently bought a 2006 fz6 with 8300kms. I got a good deal but didn't attempt to start it before buying since it was -20 Celsius. I drained the fuel, added fresh premium fuel. Was still unable to start. Checked the air box for critters. It was ok. I am getting...
Hey everyone,
I've been through these threads for a while now. I know everything is mostly old, but it is still super helpful.
Recently my FZ6 was stolen and the meth head busted it all up. Ripped the mirrors and all lights off (yes, ripped off, a screw driver or wrench was not used)...
So i bought a PCV and had a guy dynotune it. It runs so much nicer, it loves to be opened up! i have a akrapovic slip on the only main mod. Only problem is my fuel economy dropped about 10mpg+. now i know the fuel economy may decrease but that seems like a pretty steep trade off. Also to...
I've mentioned previously about Yamaha's "RingFree" which is a fuel system cleaner and top end cleaner.
It is NOT a fuel stabilizer.
It's very popular in the marine world. I use it in all my gas powered machines. IMO, an excellent product:
I was told incorrectly the wrong mix for a shock...
I'm replacing the fuel pump on '08 Fz6. Hoping some one can help me out with a picture of the underside of their tank. Trying to remember which hoses go where. I apologize if this has already been covered previously.
The fuel pump in my '06 FZ6 died. Yamaha Canada wants ~$700 for a new one. My mechanic suggested checking eBay for a previously enjoyed unit. Found one for about $150 shipped.
The new-to-me used fuel pump is installed and working, but my mechanic says there is some hesitation / lag when you...
Hi,
Last year, I bought a wrecked 2007 FZ6 for a go-cart. The guy started and it ran the engine. Been in garage for about a year so I figured I should change fuel and run it for awhile.
I drained the fuel and put in about a 1/2 gallon. When I turn it on, the pump did not prime. so I went...
'06 FZ6 dies on throttle (video included)
I'm a newbie here, and used the "search" function to check the forums for this particular problem. Besides the advice given for general fuel-related problems, I was wondering if anybody had any insight on this specific problem I'm having.
I was given...
I'm trying to be cheap about it, otherwise I would have bought a new tank in primer and just had it painted. I've been watching eBay for a year and haven't seen anything worth jumping on.
I'm looking for a cosmetically perfect fuel tank for my '04 FZ6. I'm willing to pay a fair price for a...
Okay so I've got a new problem to deal with my bike. When i started it up to go for my first ride I noticed that my fuel gauge was acting weird it started out at 3 bars and dropped pretty quickly down to nothing and went into reserve but I knew I had almost a half tank of gas. So on my next ride...
Hi guys,
Just wondering if anyone has come across the issue of fuel pouring out of their exhaust. I have a 08 FZ6N and while bike is running it pours fuel out of the little hole in the exhausts thats usually for condensation. There is enough fuel coming out to make me to worried to ride it...
Hello everybody.
I have a 2006 fz6 that is having some running issues. Usually it is hard starting but it will run for a second or so then die, but sometimes i can hop on and ride it for a bit before it will die, and sometimes it will not start at all. I do not have access to a dashboard so I...
Hi Guys and Girls :welcome:
I will try to make this short as possible. My bike has had minor starting issues from the time I bought it two years ago. The fuel pump always primed but sometimes I would have to open the throttle to get it started, and occasionally it would start from cold and just...
