FZS600 Fazer / Bike will not start no spark Ideas?? FOUND THE PROBLEM
« on: 27 September 2016, 04:57:31 pm »
Bike has not been used for about 4 weeks due to intermittent fault that I have with it.
It all started where I would start it in the moring do the 6 mile journey to work and park her up, come out at a night time and she would start no problems, then one day I need to nip out around 1 hour after I got to work and the bike took an age to start, once running it was fine.
Then one day same again got to work and went to go out again and it started but when i got to where I was going and into the shop about 5 mins it would not start at all, managed to start her after 1/2 hour or so and it ran fine. got her home and checked no spark.
So after a series of weeks and trying different things I have replaced the regulator as that was down on one of the readings this did not help at all still no sprk, changed the coils as they where the obvious culprit and this time the bike started not a problem, ran it for around 10 minutes and then it would not start but I did have a spark but a weak one, left it an hour or so and it started but again once warm it would not start.
Ordered a new set of plugs and have put those in tonight and it will not start, as again it has no spark.
So it looks like the spark it working some times but not others, the hottness of the bike might be a factor BUT seeing as it will not start tonight after a new set of plugs I doubt its that, so have you guys any ideas where I turn next. The battery is brand new 2 months ago as the old one was shot.
Oh just to add, it is getting petrol as when I took the plug out it was wet and the smell pf petrol is there too
