Hi guys, I have a 98 Katana 750. It's been running well for me, but it has had trouble starting. If I start it after it's been sitting for a while, overnight or whatever, it picks right up, but if I don't have the throttle open enough and keep it running, it'll die and can't be revived. I'm assuming that is flooded when this happens. I let it sit for 45 minutes or so, and it'll do the same thing.
Before when I've had this happen, I could just start it kind of "hard" and it'd stay running and I"d be off and on my way. The last two days when I've gone to start it, I've had the throttle wide open the whole time and it'd still die..
I replaced the spark plugs today thinking that would be the problem, but when I went to start it after putting it all back together, I found the same problem, though the old spark plugs were very much in need of a change.
Does anyone have any help? I'm lost at what to do from here and how to diagnose and fix the problem. Thanks very much.
