'75 cb550k starts then shuts off, will not idle, why?
« on: March 05, 2016, 03:10:29 PM »
So today I put in a new battery fully charged, when I try to turn on the engine, it starts but will not stay on for less than a minute. I try to give it some gas but the engine still wants to shuts off and I continue to do that several time and each time it shuts off. The bike has been sitting for quite some time therefore the old battery was shot so I  had to buy a new one. Does anyone have similar problem or any idea how to fix? thank you
