Broke wont start?????????????

#1 Unread post by edknapp »

I have been riding for 36 years !
Have an old trike and a stroker Hog!
Wanted a newer scoot and got a 2000 Honda VT1100 last year
when i parked it in Sept 2008 Ran Great?
Pulled her out of Garage this week and wouldnt start and stay running
so i pulled the plugs and changed them found it has a eletric fuel pump
and it sould come on 2 sec and fill carbs and shut off!
Well it is not coming on at all any ideas?
All fuses are good and battery is hot!
Im used to old school gavity fuel flow?

first guess would be foul connection.
i also known that with all the electronic crap in bikes nowadays i wouldnt trust that it should run for 2 seconds every single time it starts. it sounds legit but i know they do a lot of computer crap.

do the plugs get wet? if u stick your finger on the plug socket and crank does it get wet?
