Hi, i have a 98 610te and it has abit of a problem.(it wont start). first thing i did was check the spark plug(changed for new and sparks) second i seviced the carb with all new bits and third i checked the valve timing(all good):: Put new fuel in it and it will not start. Please can someone help as im getting to the point of throwing it away Be grateful if someone had an idea Thanks Rich
Hi i dont have a compression tester. but the kick start did hit me in the leg and bruise me if that helps thanks
Is it getting fuel? Is the plug wet after unsuccessful attempts at starting? Is there an in-line fuel filter that´s maybe blocked?
yep fuel is all good.its almost as if some times it sparks and sometimes not.just doesnt want to fire at all thanks
Maybe put some fuel on the plug and re-insert it and see if it will at least bruise UR leg again Try pushing it or tying it behind a truck and bump starting it ...
The flywheel magnet pack can come loose inside the flywheel on these and still spark,also make sure the choke assy on the left side of carb isnt falling off.billf
what bilf said.....i had exactly the same thing on my 96 610....i realigned and bonded them back in the correct place and she starts and runs well.. plenty of threads on loose mgnets
I agree with this, it sounds like something coming from that side of the engine. Pop off the cover, clean it up and check your magnets!
well i have found the problem. it was a hair line crack in the cylinder head,so now i need a newone.really gutted. just been quoted 1500euro for the repair. does a 610tc 98 head fit on a 610te 98 kick start model? please someone let me know as ive found one. Thanks for all replys guys cheers rich
