Suzuki Marauder VZ800 2004 Carb Question

#1 Unread post by awaite »

I have balanced my carbs last year not really knowing what I'm doing and got the MC running much better than it was. Now that it has sat all winter, I cannot start it. Battery isn't the problem, I have a charger / starter. The engine just won't fire up.

I think I may need to clean / rebuild the carbs; however, before I tackle this, where can I get a rebuild kit for these carbs and how difficult will it be?

Any other suggestions?

Did you winterize the bike? Fuel stabilizer helps starting the bike in the new season, just a bit easier...

sounds like the carbs need cleaned. any local bike shop should be able to get you a rebuild kit. if not contact me @ fastlanecycles.com. we can ship you the parts.
