Vlx600 flooded


  • Hello all, so I finally got my bike put backtogether. Try to start the bike. Was successfull but couldnt keep a idle. So I tried adjustment the fuel mix screw to 3 turn outs. Still nothing checked the spark plugs and they are wet. So now I know its flooded. I clean the spark plugs pulled the carbs. Took thr fuel mixture screw from 3 turn to 1 and a half turns. Tried it again and fuel came out of exhaust. Definitely flooded. I have the spark plugs ports open to vent and hopefully evaporate some of the fuel. And ideas on what I need to do at this point forward?



  • @Matthew Tipton I would do an oil change. Fuel can get past the rings and into the transmission. I would start there.
