If it's REALLY cold, (30* or below) the enrichener **** will stay pulled out like I want it. If it's warmer than that then the **** pulls right back in and the bike stalls right out. I have to sit there keeping the throddle open until the engine is warm enough.
Any ideas?

 

Honestly Monster, You are probably doing better that way than with the enrichener. The enrichener does just that, enrichens the mixture by adding more gas. If you use it to get the engine to start and then use the throttle WITH THE ENRICHENER CLOSED to warm the engine you will burn less fuel and keep your plugs from fouling. It just takes some patience. [8D] my .02 cents.

 

Shoulda gone with EFI, problem solved!

 

I have an EFI, but was not aware that the **** moved by itself. I thought that is was completely manual. Sorry.

 

Oh ya! Back to your question. There is a friction **** behind the enrichener pull handle. Turn it to increase/decrease friction on the enrichener cable.

 

I'll stick with my choke, thanks. Last thing I need to do is replace a defective EFI system!

 

Now that is one thing I never knew!
Thanks, Bro!

 

Let's see how many posts are here for carbs and how many for EFI,maps,SERTS,PCIII, PCIII took a dump, can't get my download to work......... Sorry man, their not ALL just like yours.

 

I've been trying to wrap my head around this one for a while. Why is using the throttle to warm up and using the enricher different? Both add more fuel to the engine to increase rpm's. Also, I've seen others talk of fouling up plugs using the enricher. If I only use it to start and warm up the bike before a ride, wouldn't the ride burn off any gunk on the plugs? Not the most mechanical here obviously but learning.

And last, I've come across two broken down bikes in the past few months. Both EFI and both thought that was thier problem. I'll stick with the carb thank you.

 

You are partly right, but the throttle adds fuel AND air, the enricher blocks the air to get just more fuel, thus the name.
