My 1988 EG has set all winter and then some. I put stabilizer in old fuel when parked her .I drained tanks and lines, refuled, getting gas to carb and thats it. NOt a drop to the jugs. Primed into plugs and ignition but no real life. I have SS super carb that refuses to drink. first time she has refused. Where or what would be the next step to check, froats, jets, Im pretty positive nothing major. Im in need a of things to look into and a push in the right direction. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,.

give the carb a tap or two with the handle end of a screwdriver.

The seat may have frozen in place and is not dropping down.
Also - pull the fuel hose off the carb and run it into a can...then open up petcock and you should see fuel flowing. at least then you know gas is getting to the carb.

 

I have gas to carb but when the weather clears ill try the tap tap thing. Thanks

 

Did you run the bike after you put in the stabilizer to make sure it got into the carb? Or close the shut-off and run the line dry?

 

Ok.... Next test is. Remove the float bowl cover and put some shop cloths under it. The float should drop and open the valve so if you turn the prtcock on you should see fuel flowing out the bottom of the carbby.
