Hi All, A few months ago I wrote in about a occasional stalling problem which turned about to be a venting issue for the gas tank. Much discussion ensued regarding swollen gaskets and modern gas formulation. Well this weekend I found the real source of my trouble. As reported previously it was indeed a venting problem with the gas tank, however my bike is a California model with a PVC system and the cap is supposed to seal. The tank is vented through the charcoal canister. At least it used to be. Some previous owner removed the charcoal canister and being the master mechanic he/she was decided that the vent line that ran to the tank was not needed and plugged it.
I ran a new vent line to atmosphere( which is what Dennis had recommended, but I was able to use the original vent fitting at the tank) and my stalling days are over. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
