Default help. raptor is bugging out...what did i do to it!!!!

Myraptor is not starting. The engine is not turning unless i open the choke all the way but once i give it gas or close the choke it shuts off again. I think its not taking in air.....I dot feel no sucation from the airbox....could it be an electrical problem???? I just put in a bracket for the gtyr airfilter and after that it wouldnt start. I ask if its an electrial problem because i did have to remove the battery and electrical wiring in order to get the airbox out. Any feedback would help! Thanks

might be electrical....did you block anything when you put the plate in the air box?

and why did you have to take your battery stuff out to get the air box? i just pulled mine out by hand when i put the pro design adapter plate and k&n filter. maybe you should check over all your electrical stuff and make sure you hooked everything back up.

Did 1 or both of the carbs pull out of the rubber boots at the cylinder? This is a common problem. Give the carbs a tug and see if they move at all. They shouldnt move.

ok my problem is solved. i found a hose that ran from the carb and was attached to nothing. it is some kind of overflow hose. my friend told me to blow hard into it....as soon as i did i heard some liquid being moved so i blew hard [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] ....anyways it started to smell like gas after i did that and my raptor started perfect after that. Thanks for your help Yamaha660R and quadbart!

Your friend was probably just joking with you.....all I can figure is the overflow was clogged?
