Search Results for ‘fuel’

I recently bought a 2009 Honda rebel I have a steady fuel leak. Everything is oem and as far as I know the carb has never been rebuilt or cleaned, from my research it is most likely a float valve issue. Turning the fuel off keeps it from leaking. Would a simple cleaning fix this issue or would I...

Hey all, I just picked up a 1986 honda rebel 450 and it does not have a gas tank. I have found a 2004 rebel 450 gas tank and was wondering if anyone knew if it may fit? I did not relize that it would be hard to find a used oem tank. With that said if anyone has a 1886 gas tank or another year...

Hey I have a 2008 Rebel and my carb is leaking fuel and I wanted to do a carb rebuild. I tried searching the web for some rebuild kits (gasket and float needle), but I cannot seem to find one for my year. Unfortunately, the rebuild kits that I'm finding are for rebels up to '06. Do you think...

I have a honda Rebel 250 with about 6,3 00 original miles. I am the 3rd owner and the first owner let sit for like a year. The 2nd owner, who I bought it from, got it running (not very well) and never did any maintenance except the occasional oil change. Well, I've had her for about a month...

I recently installed the inline fuel filter and when I did I partially filled it with gas. I noticed today after riding it that it was empty and pulling in the gas as a vaccuum (one drop to carb, one drop in filter). Is this normal? I have on it a Briggs and Stratton clear 2x filter.

How do I get to the "fuel screen"? My friend is saying it might be gunked up

I've been noticing that when I am running on a full tank of gas, the bike runs really well but once I use up about 1 gallon of fuel which is around 60+ miles, the engine would cut out 2 - 3 times a ride. Once I refuel, the bike would ride beautifully. I've had the carb cleaned out twice and...

Hey all. I am new to the forum and to motorcycles but am REALLY getting a lot of use out of the information here in my quest to figure out what I have gotten myself into! I encountered a bit of a problem today...I was warming up my bike, it's a 1986 250 that I have been pulling apart, cleaning...

Hey everyone. I just got a 2002 Rebel about 2 weeks ago. I haven't had a ton of time to ride but when I did (about 40 miles) it ran like a champ. Now today It seems to be starving for fuel. If it runs at all it is with the choke partially open and sometimes will completely die. If it sits a...

I have been having fuel starvation problems with my 2005 Honda Rebel. I cleaned out the carburetor and replaced the air filter but I am still having the same problems. It sputters and dies while cruising or accelerating from a stop and at times will refuse to start. Today I took out the fuel...
